Geoffrey EDEL
I've been a keen cyclist for many years, and I've been travelling the roads of my region to achieve my sporting goals.
Founder
To achieve this, the Munster Valley is my favourite training ground when I want to develop my mountain skills in particular. It's a real jewel for cyclists, with plenty of terrain suitable for all types of riding, from road to mountain bike to gravel.
It also has all the features of Alsace's cultural richness that I want to highlight through this challenge.
Having taken part in a number of races as a volunteer and runner, I was keen to create a set of attractive challenges that I could share with as many people as possible.
Today, la CyclO10C allows me to do just that, by offering a repertoire of epics that combine sporting challenge and cultural discovery.
I sincerely hope that the routes and the spirit of the challenge will make you want to come.
I can't wait to welcome you !

"If la CyclO10C guides you to the summit of 10 climbs, it also takes you intimately to the summit of your own mountain."


Draw the most beautiful tree of your life
And it's at the top of every mountain pass that you can reap the rewards of your work, the rewards of your tree. He who, along with you, reaches the summits.
The seed of the tree was sown in 2024. After a long period in the greenhouse, la CyclO10C tree has now been planted and offers participants a variety of routes to create the largest of forests.
Now it's your turn to plant your own seed at the start of your chosen route. It's up to you to make your tree grow as your quest progresses.
With every stretch of road you travel, every climb you make, every bend you negotiate, your tree takes shape in the wake of your wheel.
Once you've reached the summits of the different climbs, all the branches of your tree take shape one by one.
Values
Congratulations to you! You've climbed all 10 of la CyclO10C climbs, well done to you. You've reaped the rewards of all the hard work that went into helping you achieve your goal. You can savour your victory, it's yours for eternity.
The success of each climb is symbolised by a value with which the participant identifies in order to reach the end of the challenge.
Each climb is a branch on your tree, so pick the fruit of your labour, it's the best reward of all.

You've got a lot of courage to embark on this adventure. At the top of the first climb you still have 9 more to go, so good luck to you !
It's a big challenge, so be humble about what it means and proud of what you're achieving.
At pass 3, you demonstrate your ability to commit to the project. You are fully aware of what you are achieving. You're on the right track.
Respect your choices, do what you do at your own pace. After 4 climbs, you know how to listen to your body, you know what you need.
Despite the difficulties, you can find pleasure and satisfaction in what you do. Enjoy the diversity of the landscapes you encounter, the beauty of the views you contemplate and the cultural richness you discover.
You've climbed the longest pass on the route, proving your endurance. You've now climbed more climbs than there are left to climb.
Slowly but surely you're reaching the final part of the challenge. You know that you still need to be able to find a second wind to reach the end.
You've already fought hard to get here. You've fought against a lot of odds. Now nothing can stop you.
You want to reach your goal at all costs, because the challenge is long and tough. At this stage, you've reached the end but you're not quite there yet. Push yourself to the limit to get there. Remember, sweat is just the sap of your tree, which you can see growing with every pedal stroke.

A Commitment
La CyclO10C's commitment to the community is in its DNA. From the outset, one of our objectives has been to join forces with an association to work on a strong, high-impact project.
Today, la CyclO10C is proud to contribute to the preservation and renaturation of bees through its alliance with the APITERRE association.
