TOUR DE FRANCE 2020

29 June - 6 July, 2020

EXPERIENCE THE WORLD'S BIGGEST RACE

Undoubtedly, this is the ultimate Tour de France experience. Watch the race from the roadside on multiple days, drink in the incredible atmosphere, and combine it with guided, supported rides on the same roads as the pros race.

The route for 2020 features two stage finishes within riding distance of our location - stages 8 and 9 on July 4th and 5th. We will ride out together, stopping for lunch on the way, and watch the finish of these crucial stages.

On your other riding days you will ride famous climbs and stage routes from Tour de France history, accompanied by our guides. You will be fully supported on the road, so all you need to carry is one bottle and your next homemade energy bar. Everything else you need will be in the follow car. The routes each day will have easier and harder options, depending on how your legs feel.
Routes include Cols d’Aubisque and Soulor, Hautacam, Luz Ardiden, Col d’Aspin, Col du Tourmalet and more.

Stage 8: Cazères-sur-Garonne – Loudenvielle

4 July 2020
140 km

Three tough mountains mean that this stage will favour the climbers, but it's likely to be descending skills that decide the stage win as the finish in Loudenvielle is at the foot of the descent of the Col de Peyresourde. After a lumpy, demanding, and no doubt stressful opening week, stage 8 will be the first big test of the climbing form of the main GC contenders.

We will ride out to Loudenvielle over the Col du Tourmalet, Hourquette d'Ancizan and Col d'Azet, stopping for lunch on the way and arriving in plenty of time to soak up the atmosphere and watch the finish. The support car will drive us all home after.

Stage 9: Pau – Laruns

5 July 2020

154 km

Like an echo bouncing off the mountains, stage 9 follows a similar format to 8. The debuting Col de la Hourcère and Col de Soudet are really one twin-peaked climb and come in the middle of the stage, followed by the Col de Marie Blanque. This is a good opportunity for a breakaway win, so there will be fireworks on Marie Blanque.

We will ride out to Laruns over the Cols de Bordères, Soulor and Aubisque. As per stage 8, we'll have lunch on the way and arrive in time to soak up the excitement before the race arrives. For the way home, there will be the option to jump in the support car or ride – 'simply' climb the Aubisque and it's all downhill from there!
