Challenging Cycling Tours in France

August 2011

Fall Getaways in the Mountains

Don’t miss the last chance of the season to cycle the French mountain tops! With winter fast approaching, now is the time to experience the changing of seasons from atop the giant cols before they close for safety reasons. Some of our tours will continue through October, but some like our Alpes tours say au revior the middle of September. Put a group of 6 together and make it a guided tour. Our wonderful guides are itching to explore the peaks one more time this year just as much as you are. Here are a few tours that will leave your legs satisfied all through the winter:

 

Alpe d’Huez to Briancon – On this 5 night tour you will climb some of the most famous French mountains including Alpe d’Huez, Col de Croix de Fer, Col du Galibier, and Col d'Izoard.

 

Crossing the Pyrenees – Start at the Atlantic Ocean and ride through the best towns and over the toughest cols of the Pyrenees until you reach the Mediterranean Coast.

 

Mont Ventoux to Nice – New this year and already a favorite among our advanced cycling clients! Kick off your tour climbing the Giant of Provence, Mont Ventoux, and then cycle along the peaceful Mediterranean Coast to Nice. 

 

Be the last to enjoy these tour this year or be the first to ride the mountains next season. Now is the time to put together a guided custom group tour!

Want to have your own custom cycling tour in France or Europe?   Now is the time to start planning for 2012!

 

We organize groups from 4 persons to just about any number.   Our custom groups get our professional guide expertise, vehicle support, lodging to suit your budget, and the best riding route possible!   If you can dream it up, we can make it happen! Now is the time to talk to your riding buddies and friends, because in the fall is when groups of all sizes start to book and for the best room selection we recommend advance planning.
