The best way to genuinely appreciate the Pros’ performance

Is climbing a legendary Tour de France summit, hours before the peloton still on your “Bucket list” ?

Stage 6, will be the most demanding of the Pyrenean stages. A showdown between the Tour’s big favourites is quite possible on the famous Col du Tourmalet.

A few hours before the peloton you will ride on the very same route as the Pros. You will be completely immersed into the unique atmosphere of “Le Tour”. Tourmalet is one of “Le Tour” most famous & difficult climb. As the slope rises to increasingly steeper percentages, you will surely suffer. However, the constant cheering of fellow riders and spectators will ease the pain. You may also wonder if you are not wearing the “Maillot Jaune”.

After the traditional summit picture, our team will welcome you at a strategic location to watch the race in ultimate comfort settings. Gathering goodies from the advertising caravan : perfect pass-time before savouring the pros' effort.
