La Marmotte 2016 goes online for registration on Monday 9th November at noon.
Since 1983 this epic 178 km tour with over 5,000 metres of climbing has been routed around our area of the French Alps.
Every cyclist knows about La Marmotte and its illustrious climbs, including the Col du Glandon, Telegraphe, Galibier and a finish Alpe d’Huez, which is why the Marmotte attracts 7,000 avid cyclists every year.
In 2015 the organisation was forced to change the course following the collapse at the Tunnel du Chambon but we are advised that for 2016 the event is back to its traditional route including the Galibier once more.
As ever, spots for this race are in demand, so be quick to grab your race number for the Marmotte, or join More Than 21 Bends on one of their trips, include an entry and also reduced priced Bike Hire.

This one comes from Torben from Denmark. This was taken during a very long day in the saddle during La Marmotte Sportive in July 2013. At this stage he had completed over 4800 metres of climbing and about 165km of riding.
If you hired or bought a bike from us in 2013 we are after your photos. The more unusual the better. We will be choosing one photo at the end of December and that lucky person will receive one of our exclusive Alpe d’Huez Jersey. Simply attach your photo to an email and send it in to us.
