GFNY MONT VENTOUX kicks off next year's GFNY WORLD season on June 28, 2015 with a remarkable experience in one of France's top destinations, Provence. The GFNY World Season will culminate in New York on May 16, 2016.
GFNY Mont Ventoux will be staged in Vaison-la-Romaine and finishes atop Mont Ventoux, arguably the world's most iconic cycling mountain where many Tour de France stages have been held, and legends born.
The long route is 87miles / 140km and has 11,500ft / 3500m of climbing. The shorter of the two routes is 71miles / 115km long and has 9,800ft / 3,000m of climbing. Both routes travel over several cols and finish on the 6,237ft / 1,912m-high Mont Ventoux - 'The Giant of Provence'. From here, riders enjoy a relaxed descent back to Vaison-la-Romaine to take part in the post-event festivities.
