Baltic star cycling club. Regulations of the Russian Bicycle Tourist Marathon. Cycling clubs and informal groups
In this section we publish brief information about clubs and informal groups that, to one degree or another, profess a philosophy of active recreation similar to ours, and in one way or another share our hobbies.
Naturally, we are all different, we all understand “what is good and what is bad” a little differently. That is why there are many of us - good and different.
We publish this information regardless of whether we, as a club, are listed as friends of the local activists (management) or not.
First of all, because we intersect in one way or another: either we have (were, will be) common trips with star treks, or some people regularly ride there and with CARAVAN, and secondly, to demonstrate that we above petty grievances and private quarrels, demonstrating one’s, as it is now fashionable to say, “tolerance.”

All year round, on weekends, 1-2 day hikes are held around the Moscow region, with various groups, types of trips, but always with a stop, a fire and tea.

Ganelin group. Ganelin Vladimir Ilyich conducts training trips with a length of 30-35 km (on foot and on skis). The goal of Vladimir Ilyich Ganelin’s group is to travel along the paths of the Moscow region. Unlike “extreme sports”, the group covers no more than 30 - 37 km per day. This distance is accessible to all physically healthy people of all age categories. The routes pass through various types of terrain found in the Moscow region. Tempo Medium. Both in winter and summer it is 5-7 km/h. This and periodic “smoke breaks” allow the group to stay together throughout the route.

Live happily, ride to your health!
Club name: "Baltic Star"
City: St. Petersburg
Founded: 1996
Website: www.balticstar.spb.ru
Cycling marathon club - lovers of long cycling rides,
seems to be a fairly specific and succinct definition of what the club does. But nevertheless, since 2004, i.e. Since the beginning of the club's rise in activity, it began to organize its own competitions and expand participation in other sporting events.
We would formulate today’s concept this way: “Baltic Star” is a club of people who love and are able to travel for a long time on a bicycle, who have completed a certain minimum of brevets carried out according to the AUDAX rules, who want to take part in the activities of the club and events organized by it. The main focus of the club is organizing and holding brevets, but along with this, road racing and CC competitions are held. Club members are encouraged to participate in any competition related to cycling, multisport or marathon competitions.
This concept makes the club's objectives broader than those of a purely randonneur club. At the same time, it provides greater freedom to the club member. He can quite decide for himself what he wants today - to go to the brevet or defend the club's colors in third-party competitions. It is also obvious that such a definition does not make it possible to increase the entry threshold to serious marathon distances (from 400 km). Despite the fact that, according to experienced randonneurs, only participation in such long brevets allows you to most fully experience the meaning of the marathon movement, we believe that there is no need to artificially increase interest in such distances. We respect the current and future members of the club, those who currently or in principle do not set such goals for themselves. There is no limit set on the mandatory participation of a club member in brevets and competitions - he independently decides on his personal contribution to the activities of the club.
Responsibilities of a club member:
- Share the main ideas of the club, promote the randonneur movement
- Participate in as much as possible more brevets.
- When participating in competitions, a club member should, where possible (for example, if this does not conflict with membership in other clubs or teams closer to the competition profile), indicate the club.
- A club member must behave correctly in personal interactions. This rule also applies to communication on the Internet; in particular, it is prohibited to make claims against the organizers of brevets if the marathon or part of it is not organized by BZ, except by personal mail, with a copy to the club president. Failure to comply with this rule can lead to completely unnecessary problems for the entire club.
- A club member is required to pay annual dues. Accordingly, a club member who has not paid the annual fee is considered frozen for that season.
- A club member must help the club management and express his suggestions on the forum or in other ways.
Breakfast on weekdays is delicious some mornings, not so tasty some mornings. A banal omelette - it was not an omelette, but some kind of dry piece of overcooked egg mass. How can it be ruined in a restaurant setting? Red fish is not only not very fresh, but even with a smell, but for the appearance of freshness it is soaked in oil. Olivier with salmon was served in the room with the same fish in the evening. On the previous day everything was ok, including the fish. And breakfast service that day was 40 minutes. Excessive for breakfast. The waiters are friendly some mornings, not others. The staff on the floor is the same. One shift is ok, the other is not. The ironing board was brought into the room, all lopsided, so you can iron on it - you need to hold it with one hand so that it doesn’t fall. I asked for a replacement, the maid brought another one, but said with obvious dissatisfaction that I was wrong and a flat board was worse because it was heavy.)) The morning maid, in my opinion, was also too insistent, she clarified twice when she could clean up and we would leave . They did not add tea, coffee, sugar, or cream in the same shift. I had to ask. In the fitness area, one morning there was a very kind administrator, another - I would even say shameless, with someone’s wet underpants drying on the door handle. That day the sauna was dirty - there were crumbs on the shelves, and along the side of the pool there was hair left over from the previous day, because... We were the first in the morning. The porcelain seller in the hotel lobby cannot say anything about porcelain. Neither about the manufacturer, nor about the coating, nor about the characteristics. In general, one shift is super, the other is the opposite. Doesn't concern the staff at the counter - everything here was always on the level. Rubber smell from pastel linen.
A very decent place. The hotel borders the territory of the Constantine Palace, but the area near the hotel where you can walk freely is not very large and is limited. Own large parking lot, for unloading/loading you can drive directly to the entrance. The hotel is wonderful and comfortable. The reception staff is extremely helpful and the interior is up to par with the hotel. The room is comfortable, there is enough of everything, there is sound insulation. The bathroom is a good size, everything is comfortable, the mattress is comfortable and elastic. The view of the park of the Konstantinovsky Palace is romantic and serene. Incredibly beautiful sunsets. Hotel guests are escorted and greeted to the park by federal security officers and must be notified in advance of their desire to take a walk in the park. The Palace Park with access to the Gulf of Finland is very beautiful in the Versailles style. We walked there alone - in general, the entire park was at our service - the feeling was very cool. I liked the swimming pool with hydromassage and sauna at the hotel, in addition to the aroma of the shower product in the shower, I recommend replacing it - it smells organic. Restaurant with an open terrace and views of the Palace. The menu is very tasty and the buffet breakfasts on weekends are very varied and tasty; on weekdays, unfortunately, not everything is clear.
