Goal FINISHER !
Over the last few years, the TransVésubienne has made a name for itself in the mountain biking world thanks to its avant-garde character, combined with the sporting and personal challenges it imposes on its participants.
Around 87 km and 2600D+ are the “measures” of the 2025 TransVésubienne. This year, it’s time to discover and enjoy long-distance cycling for the privileged few who will cross the finish line after this extraordinary mountain bike epic.
Try your hand at adventure! Solo, Duo or Bike Hiking… on a mountain bike or e-bike on the TransVésubienne Ultra or the TransVésubienne Explorer… There’s something for everyone, so you can taste the pleasure of arriving in Nice after an epic mountain bike crossing!

The TransV Kid will follow the same route as the adult prologue, starting in waves of 5 participants per category on Saturday, October 4.
Two heats are scheduled, with the first start at 1pm.

At the end of the 1st run, parents will collect their children from Saint Dalmas and take them back up to the Colmiane chairlift for the 2nd run.
DUO RANKING !
Alone we go faster, together we go further!
Together we’re stronger! Stick together all the way to the finish line for a chance to win as a duo. You’ll need to help each other out, because only the time of the last person to cross the line counts for the duo, plus any “solidarity gap” between the first and last teammates if the team doesn’t cross the finish line together. This calculation formula will encourage Duos to stick together right up to the finish line, for better or for worse. Each rider in the team will also be ranked individually in the overall classification.
Open only to TransVésubienne mountain bike participants departing from La Colmiane.
