The time to start thinking about 2027 is now. Get yourself in shape. The 2027 tour will be a prelude to the 2027 PBP, this will be a time to get your self over the top in training. If you are not doing the PBP you can still join us on a tough two week adventure over some of the great climbs in the alps. In two weeks we will only be doing 585 miles but 74,437 feet of climbing. We will be doing less than 60 miles per day but making up with doing some of the greatest climbs.

The total cost will be $1700 of which I will need a $500 deposit to reserve your place in the tour $300 will be refundable if you cancel before June 19th. I will be restricting the amount of riders to only twenty so slots are limited. I will be providing all the hotels from Aug 1 to Aug 19 breakfast is included. In Bourg d’oisans the hotel does not provide Breakfast so I hope to contract with the Bar/Café , Café Des 2 Mondes , we will go their for breakfast and coffee.

The rooms will be double occupancy so expect to share a room. You will be expected to get your own lunch and dinner. All bike bags will be keep in the hotel in Grenoble for this I have reserved a hotel room for the entire tour. I will be providing a 9 passenger support van with driver. because most rides are out and backs the van driver will most likely be on his bike and joining us on the ride. this tour will be restricted to those that can do the miles and the climbs, do not expect to be shuttled. the van is to transport our luggage and cargo from one hotel to the next and to be available for emergency only.
