TORTOUR CAMP LÉMAN

WANDERLUST LIGHT

Bored of the usual roads around your home? Fancy some new, unknown routes? Looking forward to a few days with like-minded people?

Our TORTOUR Road Captain Martin Elmiger invites you to the season-opening Camp Léman. This week we’ll be staying in two picturesque towns on the shores of Lake Geneva, discovering western Switzerland on unknown routes and enjoying the savoir-vivre of the French-speaking part of Switzerland.

We are looking forward to a convivial week with our professional guides, great hotels, fine food and the odd challenging bike kilometre. Logically, the circumnavigation of Lake Geneva must not be missed.

As usual, we will offer different performance groups as well as suitable course lengths to suit all fitness levels. We will of course follow the Corona guidelines valid at the time of the camp.

Clear the stage for lots of female power!

Priska Dörig, from Cycling Team Ost, will be competing in the 500 solo category this year. Priska is a TORTOUR "repeat offender", as she completed the 250 solo last year. Anyone who thinks Priska has a long history in cycling is mistaken. She has only been cycling or...
