Women's 100 Evening CC London - Climbing Mountains - Taking on the Giant

Climbing Mountains - Taking on the Giant - 17th June

As part of our series of events and rides in the build-up to this year’s Rapha Women’s 100, you are invited to an evening all about mountain climbs. With Mont Ventoux as the focus, guest speakers will be talking about gearing, nutrition and overcoming the mental challenges of riding uphill for hours at a time.

Mont Ventoux, the Giant of Provence, is one of the most challenging and beautiful climbs on every riders to do list. It has seen plenty of Tour de France action with lives lost and legs and hearts shattered. Climbing from Bedoin, the rider emerges from the wooded lower slopes into a bare, moonscape, often plagued with high winds and changeable weather.

Speakers: Cyclefit, Beth Hodge, Nutrition - Caroline MacGregor

Doors open at 7pm for wine and snacks.
