“Lvivska Sotka” is the largest mass cycling event in Western Ukraine, held annually since 2010 on the first weekend of May. Its motto, “If you rode it – you won,” reflects the inclusive spirit: anyone who completes the 100-km ride within 7 hours is considered a winner.
Organizers emphasize that during wartime, the event has a reduced format — focusing only on essential logistics and participant safety. All additional expenses, such as for prizes and media coverage, are redirected to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Also note that on the same day, Lviv will host the charity “Nova Poshta Lviv Half Marathon,” with its own set of traffic restrictions and transport route changes.
