I am thinking of doing this in june. Can anyone provid details of the course and registation details/cutoff. The website for the event doesn't seem to be working. Has anyone out there done this one before. If so, is it a big well-organised affair or a glorified club run? Grateful for any details.

Cheers WIndsock

    It's a good route, worth doing. When I rode it a couple of years ago we had 800 riders or so. It split up quickly on the small hill up to Loucroup then blew apart on the Tourmalet, no shock there. The Solour is a great climb, scenic and the descent and the valley route back into Arthez is some road. Recommended.

    Thanks, Titanium. The temptation is building. DId you register beforehand or can you show up the day before and sign on for the event?

    Weirdly, the link from a google search works, but typing in the link exactly, doesn't. So if this doesn't work

    doing a search for la hubert arbes in google does

    Le cycle magazine mentions an impeccable organisation which attracts more than 1,000 entrants
