La Fuga and Rapha Launch "Rapha Randonnées"
Experience Europe's greatest rides exclusively with Rapha
Randonnée: a type of organised bicycle ride, typically covering between 100 to 1,200 km.
The traditional ‘Brevets’ and ‘Randonneur’ rides of Europe are tests of endurance, self-sufficiency and exploration. Inspired by such riding, Rapha Randonnées have been conceived in collaboration with La Fuga as exclusive point-to-point adventures running over six consecutive days, averaging between 80-100 miles of riding each day.
Groups of twelve Rapha Randonneurs will follow a carefully designed route, unique to Rapha Randonnées, that will traverse the most beautiful and historic roads and mountain passes in Europe. These epic courses are fully supported with carefully selected overnight accommodation and superb regional cuisine.
Exploration of the different regions, riding through breathtaking landscapes and the physical challenge will provide the ultimate escape. These Randonnées will be an unforgettable journey with good company, delicious food and the ride of a lifetime.
