The Cyclotour du Leman takes cyclists on a beautiful route around Lake Geneva (Lac Leman locally) that winds through vineyards and apple orchards against a backdrop of a shimmering lake and towering mountains.
Whilst not to be underestimated it is an ideal introduction to alpine sportives due to its lower altitude and choice routes. In our experience with a little preparation and fitness the 180km distance is very much achievable and dare we say it enjoyable!
The 180km tour around Lac Leman is relatively flat, a rarity amongst Swiss sportives! It makes for a great challenge for a group of riders with mixed abilities and can be combined with some local Col climbing if you're preparing for a big challenge such as the Etape.

Ahhh. A drinking game.
What a lenient sentance for killing someone whilst speeding and pissed!...
You are indeed correct, it does appear to be Drupal. That said CORS will slow down a site which would as you suggest a hosting config issue.
They immediately link LTNs to 15-minute cities. Which, in itself, is not necessarily a bad thing....
I thought about the helicpter, but could not see how it would do a close pass on a cyclist....
Agreed. Also, I'm not terribly precious about my gear but I do like it to stay looking nice; my white road shoes have just been put away for their...
An alternative term might be "rider impaler" bars.
