The penultimate day on the Trans-Savoie introduced riders to yet another kind of terrain and trails. Roots and more roots down sweeping grooves in dense woodland are the signature Beaufortain trails and riders tackled six stages on the day of continuosly challenging singletrack.
Beaufort, Savoie 28th August, 2014.
A special lift was commissioned to be open for the racers to enable a separate hill to be raced and the final stage ended in the stunning town of Beaufort, which triggered a mass beer stop at local bars and cafes.
The fastest riders completed the day with a combined race time of over 35 mins with most of the fast paced trails taking between five and ten minutes.
