Gran Fondo Marmotte Alps
I’m taking part in this summers Gran Fondo Marmotte sportive in the Alps with a couple of mates and would love to hear from anyone that has taken part in previous years events.
The main areas we need advice on are:
Where to stay (have been looking in Valloire but open to other ideas)
Which airport to fly to
How to get from our accommodation to the start/finish
Best place to hire bikes (saving the hassle of travelling with our own)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
