The 2026 Binggrae Gran Fondo will open 400 additional entries at 10:00 KST on August 19, using places released from the first registration round
If you want to ride, be ready on the official site at 10:00 KST on August 19. The extra round is limited and may close quickly.
The 2026 Binggrae Gran Fondo will open 400 additional entries at 10:00 KST on August 19, using places released from the first registration round.
The event runs from Gongju Civic Stadium through the Gongju, Cheongyang, and Buyeo area. The Gran Fondo route is 113 km / 1,342 m; the Medio Fondo is 106 km / 907 m.
The organizer lists an event-day 14:00 cutoff at the second control point, because traffic management ends then. That is worth taking seriously if your plan is to scrape through on optimism.
Official course pages provide GPX files for participants. They are event files, not a claim that the courses are suitable or available for ordinary riding outside the event.
This is a registration notice, not a route recommendation. The organizer says the first 2,000 places sold out, then announced this smaller extra round.
