Because the event tends to be sold out, pre-sales are important. This Wednesday, January 8, at noon precisely, the first tickets, only 250, for the Vélotour Orléans Center-Val de Loire region, will be offered for sale. The passport to participate in the event on Sunday May 25 will therefore be very popular.
“We will put the other places on sale from the end of January,” explains Bastien de Marcillac, the organizer. In total, the Vélotour can accommodate 5,000 participants.
Fresh CO'Met ?
If the date is known, the profile is much less so. Discussions are progressing. “We would like to do it towards CO'Met. This is part of our orientations. Going to the city center is not the trend for this edition,” concedes the organizer. The first steps will be revealed in the coming weeks. In particular the location of the departure and arrival village.
It’s not always easy for the Vélotour to renew itself. To surprise. Instead, this year, it will innovate around sixty kilometers from Orléans. Near Cheverny (Loir-et-Cher). A gourmet bike ride between the castles and the vineyards with numerous tastings is being finalized. The date has not yet been decided.
