The 174 kilometre Marmotte is a cycling event that is open to any rider and includes a course that
takes a cyclist over some of the most famous climbs in the world. Starting from Bourg d'Oisans, the
first climb is the Col de la Croix de Fer, followed by the Col de Telegraphe and then the Col du
Galibier. The final climb is to the Alpine ski resort of Alpe d'Huez, and the route of stage eight
of the 2003 Tour de France will also include the Col du Galibier and Alpe d'Huez.
In 2002, over 5,000 cyclists signed up for the Marmotte event and in 2003 you can join them.
Cycling-Ahead have put together a weeks itinerary to allow you to come to the French Alps and
prepare and ride the Marmotte. The Marmotte tour is limited to a group of eight and we will spend
the week preparing before easing off and getting ready for the event.
Cycling-Ahead are based in the French Alps in Grenoble, and our main guide for this tour Russell
Standring has ridden the event three times, finishing in 105th position in 2002. You will also have
contact with French riders over the week allowing you valuable insight into the event.
