Story
Mont Ventoux has been stirring things up in the Tour de France world since it was first introduced over 60 years ago. It became infamous when it claimed the life of the British rider Tom Simpson in 1967 and has since become a Mecca for cyclists from all over the world wanting to battle this iconic moonscape of a climb. The ‘Club des Cinglés de Mont Ventoux’ translates as the ‘brotherhood of the Ventoux nutters’ – very apt for anyone that cycles up Mont Ventoux three times in a day – 4443m of ascent in 136km! At The Steve Prescott Foundation we love supporting you on a challenge and this three-day trip is a fantastic addition to our portfolio. You follow the official route so you get awarded a certificate and medal when you make all 3 climbs or complete Mont Ventoux once.
