Bon chance!
The famous multi-day enduro event based in the French Maritime Alps opens up entries tonight at 11pm UK time.
Trans Provence sells out fast every year. It’s a heavily oversubscribed event that’s on a lot of people’s bucket lists. Watch the video above (and click through to watch all the other video’s on their Vimeo page) to see why everyone wants to do this race.
Entries are very limited. There’s only 85 places in total and 20 of those are already spoken for by pro riders and the like. SO that leaves the rest of us scrapping over a mere 65 spots.
How to enter
Check you’re not busy on 17-24 June 2017.
Find €1,795 from somewhere.
Download the entry application form.
Fill out the entry form electronically and save it.
Only one form per person. No multiple/team applications allowed.
Stare at your clock until 10:59pm tonight.
At 11pm email your form to melissa@trans-provence.com – don’t send it in before 11pm, your application will be deleted.
Then sit and wait until November 10th to find out if you’ve been lucky or not.
Bon chance!
Trans Provence boss Ash writes: “What was the World’s first point-to-point Enduro stage event has, over the years, opened up a new frontier to gravity-fuelled excitement and wild, on-sight racing. This, the 9th edition promises to be no exception: 24 stages of natural singletrack descent (a total of almost 20,000m descending in total) through big mountains and hugely varied terrain from Embrun in the Hautes-Alpes to Menton on the Côte d’Azur.”
