The Mercan’Tour Classic is a one-day cycling race held in the Alpes-Maritimes. Created in 2021, it is known for its mountainous route, featuring legendary climbs from the Southern Alps, such as the Cime de la Bonette and the Col de Valberg. Designed for climbers, this race is one of the most challenging on the French calendar due to its significant elevation gain and summit finish. With its spectacular landscapes in the heart of the Mercantour National Park, the Mercan’Tour Classic is steadily becoming a must-attend event for high-mountain enthusiasts.
Lenny Martinez, still a member of the team in 2024, won the race last year.
