Sportive Vallee D'Aulps
Event info
This is a superb introduction to Alpine road riding, two great routes on generally quiet roads and give a slightly more chilled out French sportive experience than the Marmotte in the Southern Alps, and for those of you tackling the Marmotte or the Etape (or both!) this offers some great training.
The 160km route crams a number of cols in before the final ascent up the legendary Joux Plane and the long descent back down to Morzine. If that's a bit much for this time of year the shorter 110km route offers the same stunning scenery but at less cost to the legs!
For more info on the event, prices and availability please have a look at our website www.44south.co.uk, or drop us an email at info [at] 44south.co.uk.

Cyclists used the roads before cars - it was cyclists who petitioned the government to put a hard surface on our roads.
