The Six Days of Münster was a six-day track cycling race held annually in Münster, Germany from 1950 to 1981.[1][2] Gustav Kilian, who had become renowned for his successes at other six-day races, entered as favourite and ended up winning the 1950 race.[3][4]
In 1987 and 1988, the organizers tried unsuccessfully to relaunch the Six Days.[5]
