What a pleasure it was to take part with you in the 3rd edition of the Cyclosportive La Vache qui rit! The different routes were laid out in the heart of the Jura on undulating terrain and peaceful roads. I look forward to seeing you again on 24 and 25 May 2025 for the 5th edition, which I will be sponsoring once again. Happy winter preparations!
