Fun Roc Gourmand
What is the Fun Roc Gourmand?
FUN COMES FIRST! Are you looking for that next challenge ‘with a little something extra’? During the Fun Roc Gourmand, we provide tasty snacks and delicious beers along the way as a source of energy to recharge your batteries. The Fun Roc Gourmand is a combination of a fun sporting challenge and the best that the La Roche – Houffalize region has to offer! Highly recommended for the bon vivants among us and ideal for recovering from the previous day’s ride!
What’s more, during this pleasant bike ride, we will be looking for the successor to the ‘Roi Carnaval de VTT’, who was first elected in 2017! Dress up in an original way and who knows, you might become the new King or Queen of Carnival in Houffalize! Fun guaranteed!
You can indicate during your registration which wave you would like to start in, as long as there are still places available in that wave.
