Hi there will upload some photos soon. As for cost it was really reasonable. We used a company called Cyclomondo who were excellent. The trip included 7 nights accomodation in great hotels. Three meals a day, including lunch on road whilst cycling. A backup vehicle to follow every day and another one to transport bags, a mechanic who followed each day and serviced bikes each night. 4 days of riding prior to race- 100kms per day including 2 big Cols. Entry to the race and the hiring of bikes (carbon Italian) for a week. Transport to and from Geneva airport. All for e1400. I'm going to make it a yearly trip for that price, way better value than epic.

What an amazing race we rode last Saturday. It happens each year on the first weekend of July and follows the same route each year. It starts in Le Bourg-d'Oisans at the base of Alps d'Huez and traces it's way over the Col de Glandon, Col de Telegraphe, Col de Galibier and finally up Alps d'Huez. 175 km's and 5180m of climbing. The race has around 8000 competitors and is really well run. We rode in the alps for 4 days prior to the race riding all the big col's and used a French cycling company called Cyclomondo whom I can't say enough good things about. For those a little tired of the standard South African races this is an amazing alternative and definitely my hardest day out on a bike. Wasn't prepared for 32 km climbs of 2000m.

Dstv messed up again today on the time trial. Why move to ad break with Froome about to finish. If only there was an alternative for watching sport like we have in Netflix. I'm sure that there would be an outcry if they cut the rugby short a minute before the final whistle.

Try out the spez fast tracks. I have done epic on them as well as numerous other races. Fast,light and durable. Very happy with them.

Do you perhaps know of any accomodation for the first night, just got an entry.

Hi All Got a late entry for sani2c adventure, desperate for accommodation on Tuesday night in underberg if anyone can help.

Salaam to you all I cycled with two great guys Ahmed Zade and Walid at this years epic, it was their second epic. Both strong mtb riders and top blokes.

i have no tubes.com rims with american classic hubs, light rigid amazing 29er wheel set,

Hi all Had my gf 29er for five months and discovered crack in underneath of swing arm. Anyone with any info on gf 29er frame issues. Am using for epic this year. Fortunately has warranty and lbs says will replace. Thanks.

i am training for the epic and not always able to get on road in daytime hours. Does anyone have info on usefulness of indoor trainer (rollers) or spin bike. Have heard 1 hour on trainer = 2 hours on bike but i really doubt this based on feeling in legs after both.
