Germany's biggest amateur field
Munsterland Giro's longer route leaves the flat Munsterland plain for the Teutoburg Forest foothills and the Baumberge hills before finishing through central Munster to the Schlossplatz. Surface is excellent paved road throughout — the demand shifts from flat, high-pace group riding early to moderate rolling climbs late.
For the rider with eight focused weeks and seven to eleven hours a week, this plan concentrates on the essentials: steady flat-pace riding early, then the legs to handle the Teutoburg foothills and Baumberge hills before the Schlossplatz finish.
INSIDE THE FINISHER PLAN — 7–11 HR/WK
Includes zone-tailored structured rides for your devices, built-in strength with video walkthroughs, heat protocols for when your race calls for them, peloton skills workouts, and nutrition and hydration guidance.

Hey, I'm Matti. I spent 11 years at TrainingPeaks, where they trusted me to teach coaches how to coach at TrainingPeaks University. I raced Amateur Elite with Rio Grande Cycling Team and podiumed my age group at Unbound 200 in 2026. I have a degree in biology and exercise physiology from St. Olaf. I'm also a middle-aged dad of three, so I know training doesn't happen in a vacuum. I help gravel riders get stupidly fast without becoming the person who brings a food scale to a party
