The 2026 Calendar
Prefer to design your own week? Start with Bike Hire at any hub, then add the pieces you want — local ride leaders, transfers, nutrition, ESC kit.
Nice → Alpe d'Huez
Bike hire + supported climbs across the Tour's queen stages, July 2026.
A group already waiting
Every Ride The Race trip is built around the people you’ll meet at it. Solo travellers are the rule, not the exception. By espresso on day one you’ll have a group chat full of new wheels, and by the time the support van pulls up at the foot of the queen-stage climb you’ll already know who’s in the front group.
Local ride leaders. Mechanic on the road. Photographer in the car. A bike that fits. A coffee that’s good. The rest is up to you.
Follow the crew
Sunrise spins, race-day chaos, mechanic shots, café stops — every hub posts the real week, every day.

All you need
Flying in light? Pick up a premium carbon hire bike, lid, pedals, bottles, fuel, and a course-specific GPS file at the hub. Walk out ready to roll.
