"Riding the full Tour de France route with Ride Le Loop was tough, but the incredible staff turned it into an unforgettable experience (riders can tackle individual stages too). Their infectious enthusiasm and constant encouragement kept spirits high, even on the hardest climbs. They not only looked after logistics but created a warm, positive atmosphere that bonded riders together and amplified the joy of the journey."
"If you've got a week to spare and want to experience quieter parts of the Alps in summer, then the Swiss Peaks Trail races, ranging from 10km to 643km along some of Switzerland's most runnable mountain trails, are for you. I chose the 100km route and disappeared into a world of barely trodden peaks, challenging scree slopes and turquoise tarns, sustaining myself on punchy raclette cooked by enthusiastic aid station volunteers."
Organized support transforms hard endurance challenges by providing logistics, encouragement and a positive atmosphere that boosts morale and enjoyment. Ride Le Loop runs the full Tour de France route or individual stages with staff who manage logistics, offer constant encouragement on steep climbs, and foster strong rider bonds; the next full-route trip is scheduled for 27 June–20 July 2026. Swiss Peaks Trail offers races from 10km to 643km across quieter Alpine trails; the 100km option features remote peaks, scree slopes, turquoise tarns, aid stations serving raclette, and finishes at Le Bouveret on Lake Geneva (25 August–6 September 2026). The Istanbul Marathon starts in Asia and finishes in Europe while passing many famous city sights.
