The intermediate - Guided bike tour between women
Description
You have a good physical condition, you ride your bike regularly but you are not used to doing steep climbs? Lillie Rumpf, bike guide based in Gryon, proposes you this tour in collaboration with the 100% female team Passione Sportiva.
Solo or with your group of friends, you will ride down to the Rhône plain on a quiet road before taking a break at the World Cycling Center in Aigle. The headquarters of the International Cycling Union, this spectacular building also houses a velodrome, a bicycle exhibition and a café where you can get some food. You will go back to Villars by another road, also away from the traffic. This climb of about 15 kilometers for 800 meters of difference in altitude will represent the challenge of the day. Throughout the ride, your guide will accompany you and help you to manage your effort on the way up, to improve your technique on the way down and to ride with others. The tour is 45km long and 800m high. It takes between 3 and 4 hours to ride it (including stops).
