You'll be accompanied on your rides by experienced guides and coaches. You will be back from cycling in the early afternoon to also enjoy non-cycling tourism activities. 

You should plan to arrive in Lourdes on Saturday, June 4. 

The cycling kicks off on Sunday, June 5 and goes until Saturday, June 11. Meet up time is 9:30am daily in the town center of Lourdes. We meet at a café, so you can get a coffee or use the restroom before we ride. We often take pre-ride group photos and videos. The daily briefing is at 9:45am.

The departure is 10am. From our meeting point, we will ride to our day’s cycling challenge. 

For Day 1, we will ride easy on this day and stay together. We will use this day to gauge the speed of the group. For other days, we will split the groups by speed, although all riders will take the mountain climbs at their own speeds. There will be a support car with water, basic food and basic mechanical supplies following the ride.

Group leaders will speak French, English and Spanish.
