The event in a few words

The Virade de l’Espoir de Vélye is your MTB meet-up in the heart of the Marne, Grand Est style: nature, forest, and trails that put a smile on your face rather than long speeches 🚵‍♂️.

Here, you ride in a simple, friendly atmosphere, with that little extra “virade” soul: you come to treat yourself, and you leave with the feeling of having lived a real day outdoors 🌲.

As for the routes, you choose your menu: 5 km for an easy discovery, 8.7 km or 10 km to get your legs going, 14 km or 15 km for a solid outing, and 47.5 km if you want the big ride (promise, you’ll have a story to tell)! 😄

After your loop, stick around: take a detour to Épernay and the Avenue de Champagne, head up to Hautvillers (a picture-postcard village), or get some fresh air on the slopes and panoramas of the Champagne vineyard for a peaceful walk 🍇.

If you come as a duo or with family, you can also treat yourself to an easy stroll among the vines and viewpoints, then finish with a drink on a terrace nearby… just to celebrate the ride properly ✨.
