At Maats, we couldn’t be prouder to welcome you in three different stores this year — and that calls for something epic, something truly unique.

Last spring, we hosted the Store-to-Store-to-Store: Road Edition, which turned into a huge success with around 60 riders joining us across our locations. Now that summer is behind us, it’s time to hit the dirt with an off-road version: Store-to-Store-to-Store: Gravel Gems.

Designing a proper gravel route through the Randstad is no easy feat — but we’ve done our homework and uncovered some hidden off-road gems you might not know yet. The result is a ~200 km route that mainly follows roads but includes every gravel path we could possibly link between the three biggest cities in the Netherlands.

Choose your starting point: Maats Amsterdam, Maats Utrecht, or Maats Rotterdam.
All groups roll out at 09:30 and will pass by every Maats store along the way.

Coffee will be served from 09:00 at all three starting locations. At each store stop during the ride, you’ll find fresh drinks, warm coffee, and snacks waiting to refuel you.

And of course, we’ll wrap it all up with cold beers and soft drinks — because after a ride like this, you’ve definitely earned it.

We can’t wait to ride this one with you!

The all-new Maats Thermal Longsleeve Jersey is made from a MITI mid-weight 230 gr/m2 fabric, with micro-fleeced lining giving you comfort on cold days on the bike. The Italian fabric has been coated with a DWR (water-repellent coating), and is perfect to ride in temperatures from 5 to 15 degrees Celsius. The backpockets are deep enough to store your mid-ride snacks and an extra hidden zipped pocket creates a safe space for your key or cash money.

• Japanese YKK zipper
• Italian produced fabric by MITI
• 82% Polyester, 18% Elastane
• DWR treated fabric
• Produced in Lithuania at LTP

Alba Optics x Maats: Sunset Run

From day one, Maats has been all about the love for cycling. Now, for the first time in the history of Maats, we're lacing up our running shoes, taking a new step: we're going to run!

Lots of cyclists go for a run more and more (and vice versa) and we cannot deny the mutual interest from both sides. Maats does not want to run behind on this (...😉). Hence we're going to do something crazy, to discover whether or not running suits Maats.

Together with Alba Optics, we’re hosting a Sunset Run  – a laid-back after hours Community Run starting from our store in Rotterdam, the city known for the marathon and it's ever growing running culture. 

Because we are going to try something completely new, we want to make this a memorable evening: Emiel Berghout, Brand Ambassador and Running influencer, will join us to bring the energy and make awesome content.

Whether you’re an experienced runner or simply curious to join this new vibe – everyone is welcome! 

Event information:

• Friday October 3rd
• Maats Rotterdam, Hoogstraat 56A 
  
• Gathering: 18:00
• Start run: 18:30
• Distance: 7 km, pace: 6:00 min/km 
• No indicated pace: you do you!
  
• Post-run Italian pasta & (0.0) champagne
• Only 50 tickets available 
  

The initially planned early morning ride has unfortunately been cancelled.

Every year Albion Cycling uses the lack Friday period as an opportunity to encourage customers to repair rather than replace their kit, and this year they are bringing their mobile repair station to Maats Amsterdam, offering free repairs on any brand of cycling clothing! 

 From 10:00 the Albion team will be on hand the whole day to meet customers. They will also teach you how to easily repair your kit at home, with a free repair kit for take away! There’ll also be Albion gifts throughout the day for Albion purchases in-store.

NOTE: This is all about fixing scrapes and tears, and the focus is on patch repairs. Big repairs like zip replacements will not be available on the day due to the time they take.

Register on Eventbrite

Details:

• All day repair service on all cycling apparel by the Albion crew
• Learn how to repair your kit at home
• Pick up a free repair kit to take away!

Maats is thrilled to announce that we're hosting this year's Rapha Festive 500 Challenge, offering you one huge ride to boost your progress to complete the challenge. 

An elevated Store-to-Store-to-Store Ride:
