Tour de Fleece 2021

When: Jul 2, 2021
9:00 am
Details:
Tour de Fleece starts this Saturday for our spinners out there!

Everyone can set their own personal goal for the Tour de Fleece (spin every day, spin for a project, etc.)

This year, the Tour de Fleece starts on Saturday, June 26, 2021 and runs until Sunday, July 18, 2021.

Guidelines for our LYS Spinning Community (NOT RULES):
  • Spin every day the Tour rides, if possible. Saturday June 26 through Sunday July 18. Days of rest: Monday, July 5 and Monday, July 12. (Just like the actual tour.)
  • Spin something challenging on the challenge days (usually the toughest high mountain stage: this year, the first one is Stage 9, on Sunday July 4, when the mountainous program of the day starts with the tour going up the Col du Pré for the second time and of course the majestic Cormet de Roselend before heading up the long final ascent that sneaks up under the dam all the way to the Val Claret. The second is Stage 15, on Sunday, July 11, when they journey through Prades, Font-Romeu, the col de Puymorens, the Port d’Envalira and Beixalis with slopes that are as tough to climb as they are tricky to descend: the Principality will crown a real king of the mountains.
  • Wear yellow on Sunday July 18th to announce victory. Why not wear yellow on any day you feel particularly successful? (Yellow is the color of the race leader in the Tour - but here we are all ‘race leaders’) Other colors if desired: Green (sprinter - think FAST), Polka-dot (climber - as in uphill), and White (rookie).
  • Special Events for Tour de Fleece will be posted on the LYS website during the tour including a wrap up event complete with prizes!
