Velobelle had there first experience of a Cyclo Sportives recently when taking part in Le Pierre Le Bigaut  (http://www.lapierrelebigaut-muco.org ) . Cyclo Sportives are long distance, organised, mass participation cycling ‘events’ - not races.

This event is held every year starting and finishing in the quaint market village of Callac which is in the Cotes d’Armor region of Brittany.

The Pierre Le Bigaut draws up to 7000 cyclists from all over Europe and is essentially a charity event...
