L’Echappée Gaillarde : Cycling
The second edition ofthe Échappée Gaillarde will take place on 29 June 2025. There will be two cycling routes: 60 km and 100 km, both starting from Brive-La-Gaillarde.
News: L'Échappée is cancelled
The bad weather last Wednesday caused extensive damage to the paths, making them impassable.
A municipal by-law was issued today restricting access to the Parc de la Guierle.
In addition, the numerous obstacles on the paths and the risk of falling branches are jeopardising the safety of participants.
In view of these factors, the Échappée Gaillarde scheduled for Sunday 29 June is cancelled.
We thank participants for their understanding and remain at their disposal for any further information.
Refund arrangements will be announced shortly on these pages.
