A highly immersive expert-led training camp with sports scientists from Sheffield

Hallam University and former Olympian and ex-Team Sky rider Phil Deignan, based

near France’s iconic Mont Ventoux. The scientists have supported multiple Olympic

and UCI professional wins, whilst Phil has ridden in support of Chris Froome and

achieved a Grand Tour stage win in his own right at the Vuelta a España.

A unique ride experience, in the company of experts giving stimulating seminars and

1:1 consultation. Plus, a full ride itinerary, road support, recovery sessions and plenty of

those special touches that pro-cyclists enjoy. Staying in a delightful 4-star chateau in

the heart of Provence. This is the next level up from a standard training camp, where

you will leave as a more effective, efficient and enlightened rider.

In partnership with Just Pedal and

Sheffield Hallam University's Centre of

Sport and Exercise Science
