CIC Mont Ventoux

4500 metres of elevation gain in just 153km: very few events in the UCI calendar demand the amount of condensed effort the race previously known as Mont Ventoux Dénivelé Challenges as for. For the rest, though, it’s really similar to the last years’ courses.

The Ventoux sides featured are the one from Sault -a gentler side until the Chalet-Reynard, 24km at 5% avg.- and the one from Bédoin -21km at 8.7%-, preceded by the ‘prelude’ cols of La Madeleine (2x), La Gabelle (10km at 4%) and Rocher du Cire, also a relatively easy ascent.
