Ride all 8 selected cycling videos within 21 consecutive days to be rewarded with a unique Sunflower challenge item and listed as a Tacx Sunflower challenge hero. The combined route covers a total distance of 208 km and an impressive 8,154 altimeters. Prepare yourself for a rather mountainous route with some gruesome slopes up to 23.7%
The 2020 edition of the biggest Grand Tour in the world has an unconventional route and is especially designed for climbers. Eight of these climbs are part of this tough challenge, starting with the Col d’Eze in Nice. Up next is a real climbing challenge on the Col de la Lusette followed by a steady climb on the Col de Peyresourde. Then after a scenic ride on the Port de Bales in the Pyrenees it’s time for some fireworks. First the serious and very steep Puy Mary in Massif Central and then the newly built cyclist’s road to the Col de la Loze in the Alps. This is part of the queen stage and will no doubt become one of the new legendary climbs. It’s about as close as it possibly gets to a rollercoaster with constant twists and incredibly steep sections. Get yourself ready for this! To wrap it up, you only have to conquer the Plateau des Glières and the time trial stage on La Planche des Belle Filles. Just like the pros, you get 21 days to fulfill this tough French challenge. C’est tout!
