The city of Nice had a compelling reason to use the hashtag #nicecyclingparadise for promoting the 2020 Tour de France start – in fact, there are countless reasons, each more enticing than the last, as you start to uncover the vast array of cycling opportunities this region has to offer.
However, it’s not just about the sheer number; it’s the incredible diversity of cycling experiences awaiting you. From epic, high-altitude climbs to leisurely rides along the coastline, from journeys to the Italian border to thrilling gravel adventures, and from conquering well-known mountain passes to uncovering hidden, uncharted paths.
Throughout our expedition, we’ll conquer all the iconic routes that professional cyclists frequent during their season preparation. We’ll venture into secluded valleys, meander through enchanting medieval towns, partake in sailing excursions, savor exquisite culinary delights, and have the privilege of welcoming esteemed guests.
Our gracious hosts are none other than Café du Cycliste, a globally renowned apparel brand. We’ll enjoy a coffee or two at their shop, which will serve as the starting point for some of our rides. Most importantly, the founder and his team will ensure that we experience the Cote d’Azur like true locals.
