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.

I'm just someone on the internet with an opinion like everyone else here!...
Why has such a fugly and massive rear light got such poor run times? My tiny Flare RT has 12hrs at 45 lmns.
Bronze = lasts longer than a cable tie
You're missing the point. The cassette is unforgiveable when aimed at this market and the width of the tyres not much better. You shouldnt have...
Its tragic but worth noting that this is just statistics playing out. Same happens at most mass participation sports events. The London Marathon...
