However, not all riders perceive this moment the same way. It’s akin to the last kilometre of a challenging Alpine pass like Iseran, Galibier, or Izoard. During one of our road bike trips along the Route des Grandes Alpes, our tour guide Damien gathered testimonials about what participants think during that final stretch of a pass. What thoughts occupy their minds at this moment? This short film offers a glimpse into their experiences set against the stunning backdrop of the French Alps. Thank you, Damien!

Alongside the support vehicle—and a trailer if needed—we follow him through stunning and diverse landscapes. We gradually uncover the many facets of his job: as a true all-rounder, he handles daily luggage transport, prepares picnics in the form of cold buffets, assists with physical or mechanical issues, checks reservations on-site, and conducts briefings before each stage. But there's more! In addition to his organizational and technical expertise, the tour leader brings his personality to often diverse groups, fostering unity and providing care. He ensures that your cycling experience transforms into an enriching and unique human journey. We would like to express our gratitude to all the participants who shared their insights during their trip, and a special thanks to Damien!
