CYKELNERVEN - STAGE 2 FINISH AT THE TOP OF ‘LE BETTEX’

“Just like Tour de France stage 15, we start in the mountain town of Les Gets and finish our 2nd stage at the top of the Saint-Gervais Mont-Blanc Le Bettex climb. But specifically for this day, we offer three different distances for three different levels. Regardless of the distances, do not underestimate the harshness of the hilly mountain terrain".

Let's start by saying that the goal of CYKELNERVEN is to achieve great experiences with great challenges - of course with a focus on the important fundraising effort, and of course also when you struggle for many hours in the saddle four days in a row.

Not all riders have the same experience with challenging rides in the mountains. This is the main reason why we offer THREE LEVELS with THREE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF DIFFICULTY specifically for this stage

As in previous years, there will be assistance from the fantastic teams behind the event. This means that support cars, mechanics, transport of luggage in large trucks, photographers and other important functions will help and focus on creating an optimal event and experiences.

Our greatest hope is that all riders have prepared very well since the start of the journey in autumn 2022. This should mean that every rider is able to cycle each stage with the 'help' of endurance, strength and the necessary level of fitness. We do not do bike races or race against time - we ride in teams and together, which mean that on flat road segments we keep up with the speed, and on climbs you ride according to your own abilities, after which the team's coaches wait for you at the top of the mountain. occurs. These conditions and considerations are especially important during the long and challenging distance of the 2nd stage. Here, the riders are primarily assisted with lunch, water and nutrition at one selected location through one service car. The rest of the time, riders and coaches are self-supporting, i.e. we find water reservoir, but have the necessary energy with us along the way until the bike is parked in Saint Gervais. See the stage as a hard and extended long-distance training!
