Vosges regional meeting at Col du Prayé on 3 September 2016

Saturday 3 September 2016, Vosges

Col du Prayé, 785 m (Bas-Rhin)
After visiting the Vercors, why not put your wheels down in the verdant Vosges mountains?
Jean-Christophe, from Alsace, and Arsène, from Lorraine, invite you to take part in the concentration des cent cols de l'est, which will take place on 03 September 2016 at the Col du Prayé.
The meeting point is at 9am at the pass (a small road gives access). Coffee will be served by Marie-Françoise.
From there, vettists will complete a thirty-kilometre loop on a good track through the fir forest, passing over the Donon, Asson, Ht du Bon Dieu, Croix Brignon and Pourrio passes before finally arriving at the Prayé pass.
As for the road riders, they will complete a 70-kilometre route over the Lamperstein, Halmoze, Engin, Engin and Donon passes.
Everyone will meet up at the Col du Prayé at around 12 noon to share traditional bread and cheese.
If you bring your own snack, you can enjoy it with us at the pass to extend the conviviality.
If the quest for passes isn't enough for you, you'll have plenty of time in the afternoon to climb another fifteen or so passes in the surrounding area.
Arsène will already be at the pass on Friday evening.
Come one, come all - you won't be disappointed, if the gods are kind to us!

Arsène
