Hello,
I'm thinking of coming. I don't know yet whether it will be with my road bike or my mountain bike. I'm interested in both options. Thank you for organising this day.
Good sportsmanship

Hello, my friend, cols
I’m thinking of coming to the rally. Road circuit. I’ll arrive the evening before and sleep in my BERLINGO. I’m looking for either a campsite or a CCC where I could park my vehicle in their garden. I’m looking forward to taking part in this rally.
Kind regards, Alain
Hello Alain,
I’d replied to your private message; I’m not sure if you’ve seen it.
There is a campsite in the village of Valbelle itself, which is open at this time of year.
We look forward to welcoming you on Saturday 29 August from 8.00 am. .
Have a safe journey!
