Telephone Code – 03 www.franche-comte.org www.rhonealpestourisme.com Awesome, inspiring, tranquil, serene – superlatives rarely do justice to the spectacular landscapes of the French Alps and the Jura. Soaring peaks tower above verdant, forested valleys, alive with wild flowers. Mountain streams rush down from dour massifs, carving out deep gorges on their way. Mont Blanc, Grandes Jorasses and Barre des Écrins for mountaineers. Val d’Isère, Chamonix and Les Trois Vallées for adrenaline junkies. Vanoise, Vercors and Jura for great outdoors fans. So many mythical names, so many expectations, and not a hint of flagging: the Alps’ pulling power has never been so strong. What is so enticing about the Alps and the Jura is their almost beguiling range of qualities: under Mont Blanc’s 4810m of raw wilderness lies the most spectacular outdoor playground for activities ranging from skiing to canyoning, but also a vast historical and architectural heritage, a unique place in French cuisine (cheese, more cheese!), and some very happening cities boasting world-class art. So much for the old cliché that you can’t have it all.

  • A Slovak Superstar: Peter Sagan
    A Slovak superstar: Peter Sagan Peter Sagan, planet's most successful cyclist, was born in Slovakia in 1990. With 89 victories he goes by motto »Wake up and be happy«. Sep 29, 2017 Photo credit: Reuters Pictures Peter Sagan can do it all – he is one of the world’s most powerful and skilled bike riders, a sprinter and is also considered to be one of the cycling’s greatest talents. This claim is proved by the list of his major wins: 7 stage wins Tour de France, 5 points competition Tour de France, 2015 Tour of California, 2015 road race world champion, 2016 road race world champion, and 2016 Tour of Flanders. He is a Slovakian professional road-bicycle racer for UCI WorldTeam Bora-Hansgrohe. He started as a mountain bike racer and in 2008, before moving to road racing won the Junior Mountain Bike World Championship. On September 24th this year, Sagan won the World Championship for the third consecutive year at the World Road Race Championships in Norwegian Bergen and became the first cyclist to win three gold medals at the World Championship in a row! Photo credit: AFP Bratislava’s own motto of “Accessibility-Innovation-Execution” should also be the motto for the whole country and for every aspect. Slovaks surely are an amazing nation, successful in all fields one can imagine. Their pride and happiness reflected on their champion Peter Sagan surely gave the Slovaks a worldwide popularity and some hope to host some cycling events as, for example, “Gran Fondo”. Slovaks are ready, what about the World? While considering to organise the race in the Slovak Republic, let us keep in mind that those are the people who actually go from words to actions.

  • Ganna Shines in the Tour of Flanders, Kristoff 16Th
    WEEKLY MAGAZINE FOR DEALERS #92 - 3 APRIL 2018 Ganna shines in the Tour of Flanders, Kristoff 16th The young individual pursuit world champion Filippo Ganna is again a player in the northern classics. After Ghent-Wevelgem last week, today he attacked for another 140 kilometres with five others in the Tour of Flanders. “It was great,” Ganna explained. “On the climbs, the fans were yelling so much that I couldn’t even hear myself. The DS every now and then, spoke and I told him to say it again, I couldn’t hear because of the fans. “I like that I’m doing well from the start in these races, but I need to still learn now to race here in the North. Every bit of energy you save, counts. I can’t even think of Roubaix now, I’m too tired.” Niki Terpstra (Quick-Step Floors) won the race solo with 12 seconds over Dane Mads Pedersen (Trek-Segafredo) and 17 seconds over his team-mate Philippe Gilbert. Former winner Alexander Kristoff finished 16th. “In this moment, maybe the Kwaremont is too hard for me,” Kristoff said. “Just missed a little bit. It was smart solution to anticipate the climb, and the best moment was when Terpstra attacked.” Mirza wins the UAE time trial championship One week after having obtained the UAE title in the road race, Yousif Mirza won also the Emirati time trial cham- pionship. Riding his K.one Colnago bike on a 33,5 km course, he preceded in the final standing Marwi (+17″) and Mansoori (+1’35”), adding another victory to the precious ones alrea- dy obtained in the early parto of the season: the road race Asian title, the Asian continental championship on track in the points race and the road race UAE title.

  • Olympic Cyclist Joanna Rowsell Joins Team Action for Prudential Ridelondon-Surrey 100
    Olympic cyclist Joanna Rowsell joins Team Action for Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 Joanna Rowsell MBE, team GB cyclist, world record holder and Olympic gold medallist, will join cyclists riding for children’s charity Action Medical Research in the first Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 on Sunday 4 August. The long-distance ride, following a similar route to the London 2012 road cycling races, will be a new challenge for the 24-year-old, who is the charity’s Cycling Ambassador. She may be super-quick on a bike but the 100-mile event will be the furthest distance she has ever cycled! As the newest recruit to Team Action, Joanna will join the charity’s 131 riders in the mass participation event and hopes to finish in around five hours. The Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 aims to recreate a little piece of the magic of 2012 and will see 20,000 amateur cyclists set out from the new Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. The ride follows a route along closed roads through the capital and out onto Surrey’s stunning country roads and hills before passing by the Houses of Parliament to finish on The Mall in central London. Joanna won gold in the women’s team pursuit at London 2012 and has also been national, European and world champion, as well as a world record holder for the event. Last month she added her first British Time Trial title to her impressive list of achievements. She says: "I am really looking forward to riding the Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 with Action Medical Research.

CYCLOMUNDO 18, rue René Cassin La Chatelaine 74240 Gaillard Tel: +33(0)4 50 87 21 09 E-mail: [email protected] Combo trip: Ventoux to Alpe d’Huez + Marmotte June 30th through July 8th, 2019 Experience some of the most famous Tour de France climbs in Provence and in the Southern Alps on an extraordinary 6-day cycling tour from Mont Ventoux to Alpe d’Huez. On our itinerary, you’ll wheel through physically challenging routes, such as the Col d’Izoard and the 21 hairpin bends to Alpe d’Huez; glimpse sunrises and sunsets, ravishing canyons, verdant pastures and fine looking vistas. Enjoy a peek at the pre-Alps countryside in the charming towns of Sault, Guillestre, and Briançon and feel serene as you glide along more pleasant paths by the Lac de Serre-Ponçon. On this date, this tour may be combined with the Marmotte cyclosportive event. ____________________________________________________________________________ Itinerary: Sunday, June 30, 2019: Arrival in Mazan Welcome to Provence! Your adventure starts in the small village of Mazan, with its old medieval center protected by a circled wall of buildings. If you’re arriving by train, Avignon is the closest city that is serviced by the TGV. In this case, we can arrange a transfer between Avignon and Mazan (note that the transfer is not part of the package). Avignon is marvelous, with tree-lined cobblestone streets leading you to the main square and the “Palais des Papes” (the Pope’s Palace). Take some time to visit the palace and its grounds. Wherever you arrive from, remember to eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow, you ride! Monday, July 1, 2019: Mazan - Orpierre Take on the classic Tour de France ride up Mont Ventoux via Bédoin this morning.
