Dear fellow rider,

 

My name is Peter Laundon and with my wife Helen we run a small selection of apartments in the Hautes Alpes.

 

I am currently contacting cycle clubs in the UK to make them aware of our self-catering apartments for potential cycling trips in 2005.

 

We are based in the Hautes Alpes region of France, the centre for road-biking in Europe. This area offers incredibly challenging and beautiful terrain for the cycling enthusiast, both amateur and professional. The Hautes Alpes cols are often the scene of epic battles in the Tour de France. You too can come here and follow the climbs and descents of the cycling legends. Follow this link for more information on what this area has to offer http://www.alpsun.com/bike_en.htm

 

The Tour de France 2005 will have a stage finish on the 13^th July (Courcheval to Briançon) and stage start on the 14^th July (Briançon to Dignes Les Bains) in the town of Briançon, just 15 minutes from our apartments. So why not book your trip around this week and get to see the Tour.

 

As well as being well equipped and comfortable the apartments offer:

-    Secure storage for bikes and equipment

-    Ample Off road parking

-    Excellent showers    

-    DVD and or PlayStation2 players and a selection of films and games for those restful evenings between rides

 

You will see from our website that there are plenty of other activities on offer in this beautiful region for the non-cycling family members to enjoy. We are a small family-run business and we pride ourselves on making sure our guests have everything they need to have a great holiday.

 

Please take a look at our website http://www.alpsun.com and don’t hesitate to contact us for more information.

 

I hope this is of interest to you or your club members now or in the future.

 

Perhaps you could consider putting a link to us from your club website.

 

Kind Regards,

 

Peter & Helen Laundon

 

P.S. The mountain biking is awesome here too!
