Heya, im looking for the right group ride / race to sign up for - any tips much appreciated!

I find plenty of rides and races here http://www.bikepacking.com/event/, but its a bit difficult to get a sense of the phase of each event from their websites / online info. Im looking for something rather chill with time to stop for a nice view once in a while and just ride 8-12 hours per day and see how far I/we get, having time to talk to other riders, sleep in, drink some beers, go for a walk, chill in cafe/restaurent - stuff like that. So maybe more of a casual bikepacking trip with others than a race 🙂

I read about the Torino-Nice Rally, I think it could be something like this, but its closed for sign-ups - I guess most rides might be at this point? :s But pls feel free to recommend closed rides, maybe next year then 🙂

Practicalities: I live in Denmark and would like not to have to fly (climate change and stuff), but I can travle quite far by train and bus (recently traveled from Sarajevo with bike). Would be keen to go to Norway! But Southbound also works. Mid juli-mid august would be ideal, but I can go earlier/later. I would like to ride around 3-10 days, preferably more days if further from home. My bike is gravel bike with 40mm tyres (cant go wider :SS).

Lots of text, but thought it helpful to be specific 🙂 Hope someone has a suggestion or two?

Cheers!
