PYRENEES
MOUNTAINS: A Climber's Paradise |
| While
the
Alps capture the most attention, France's other famed mountain
range, the Pyrenees, rivals the Alps in beauty while
offering equally epic climbs.
Consider
recent
Tours, where the race's outcome was decided on the climbs of the
Pyrenees, long before the race reached Paris. Cycling aficionados
appreciate the grandeur of the Pyrenees and its classic climbs: Luz
Ardiden, the Tourmalet, the Col
d'Aubisque, Col d'Aspin the Col du
Marie Blanc, and St. Soulan, where George
Hincapie climbed to a stunning victory in the 2005 Tour de France.
Now
MJCT
invites you to explore the raw beauty and sheer power of the
Pyrenees Mountains. Having started his European career in the Pyrenean
town of Oloron St. Marie, Marty is "going home" to the towns, roads and
climbs he knows so well - and climbs he wants to share with you.
Nestled
in
the valleys of these towering mountains are classic French towns
brimming with Old World charm, quaint villages in which we'll be
staying. In addition to Oloron, we'll stay in Luz St. Saveur at the
base of the "hors catégorie" climbs of the Tourmalet and Luz
Ardiden. "Luz" will be the center for your adventure with climbs in
every direction. Each village and hotel in which we stay features the
comforts befitting the pro peleton: charming accommodations, excellent
dining, incredible regional wines, and a friendly and attentive staff,
all with an attention to detail. |
