🥳Whoop! Whoop! When Le Tour de France announced their 2025 route last November, we were thrilled silly to find out that we were going to be in the vicinity for stage 19 - and that's today!😄

It happens to be day 5 for the riders 🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️🚴on our 🇫🇷Northern French Alps tour, so they've got the option of watching the pros fly past and getting immersed in the complete craziness of le Tour today on either the Roselend or at the stage ending in La Plagne.

What's on the menu for the peloton?
⛰️Col de Saisies 1,650m, 13.7km, 6.4%
⛰️Col du Pré 1,748m, 12.6km, 7.7%
⛰️Cormet de Roselend 1,968m, 5.9km 6.3%
⛰️La Plagne 2,052m, 19.1km 7.2%

It goes without saying that you can ride these with us (and at a more leisurely pace 😂). Check out our Alpine Classic Cols https://marmot-tours.co.uk/holidays/alpine-classic-cols and Northern French Alps tours https://marmot-tours.co.uk/holidays/road-cycling-holiday-northern-alps-france for more details on these itineraries and the daily flexible routes on offer.

Le Tour de France stage ending today is Mont Ventoux🇫🇷

💥1,911m
💥21.3km
💥7.5% avg.

🫶People (including us) have waxed lyrical about the Giant of Provence for decades, and for good reason. It's a beaut and could arguably come under the dictionary definition of a classic stage ending.

💪Have you bragged about conquering its slopes yet?

There are 2 ways you can enjoy it with our exceptional support:

1. On our flexible pace 📍Ventoux and the Verdon Gorge tour - 6 days of wonderful cycling around the foothills culminating in an ascent of the Windy Mountain on the final day. Go at your own pace and pick from 2-3 routes on offer daily.😎
https://marmot-tours.co.uk/holidays/ventoux-verdon-gorge

2. Attempt the 📍Club des Cinglés du Mont Ventoux challenge - our 4 day trip with 2.5 days of cycling. You'll enjoy a warm up ride before attempting 3 ascents of Ventoux in one day from different directions. You DO NOT want to attempt this without us!🏔️🏔️🏔️

Today we're wishing our Office Manager SABINE an enormous HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 🎂🥳🎈

Sabine is a complete legend in the Marmot Tours office. While she may occasionally paddle furiously below water, above it she's always cool, calm and collected! Her gifts are many but one of them is that she's always ready to offer support with a smile and she is enormously valued by all who work with her 🤗

We hope you have a great day today, Sabine so from all the team, "Cheers!" 🍻🍷🍸

Please would you join us in wishing Marmot guide CLAIRE a very Happy Birthday today!🎂🥳🎈

🤩Claire joined the team in 2024 and our clients repeatedly tell us what a fantastic guide she is. A bundle of energy but also calm, caring and meticulous, and with a cheeky sense of humour, it already feels like Claire has been part of the team for years.

We hope you have an amazing day, Claire, so from all the team, "Cheers!" 🍻🍷🍸

🚴‍♂️Hautacam is the stage ending on Le Tour de France today. This is a tough climb with erratic gradients but if you're lucky enough to get a view from the top and it isn't shrouded in fog, it's well worth it⛰️⛰️⛰️

🤓The stats: 1,616m, 16 km, 7.6% avg maxing out at just shy of 13%🤟

💥It's an optional extra on day 6 of our Pyrenean Classic Cols tour - after you've ticked off the Tourmalet earlier that day (and maybe even Luz Ardiden too, if you've got it in you!)

🚴‍♂️Throwback to our tour in 🏔️SLOVENIA🏔️ last week, which was a triumph. The Triglav National Park is a spectacular place to ride a bike, and add to that the opportunity to climb the Mangart Saddle, Vrišic Pass, Monte Zoncolan, and maybe even a dip in 🏊‍♂️Lake Bled and you've got yourself a cracking .

🚴‍♂️Our riders are digging deep on 🇫🇷RAID ALPINE this week and experienced all manner of weather conditions on day 2 - but they're still smiling from ear to ear!🙌

😁This is why we give you a handy kit list, so you're prepared for all situations when cycling in the high mountains

And as for our guides? Well, they're loved at all times, of course, but never more so than at the top of a snowy Col de l'Iseran!🤩🏔️🌨️

Chapeau team! You're smashing it!💪
