The University Club of AZS at the Wrocław University of Science and Technology's Branch Didactic Centre in Jelenia Góra will organize the Polish Academic Mountain Biking Championships for the eighth time. They will be held on a course in Paulinum Park and the adjacent paths. This is the largest mountain biking event held in Poland in the Olympic cross-country format. More than 300 competitors from over 40 higher-education institutions from across the country will line up at the start (only the under-23 and elite categories).

What's more, an additional race will be held for everyone interested (in the junior, under-23 and elite categories). For the first time in the history of the event, a training seminar entitled “Contemporary Cycling Training” will also take place as part of the championships.
