Grimpée de l’Alpe 2025 – Racing on Alpe d’Huez

Grimpée de l’Alpe is a classic mountain time trial from Bourg d’Oisans to the top of Alpe d’Huez – 13 km, 21 bends, and over 1,000 meters of elevation. It’s a short but intense test, and a perfect lead-up to La Marmotte Granfondo Alpes. This video covers my climb – including pacing, what worked (and what didn’t), and the real feeling of tackling Alpe d’Huez hard. Whether you’re preparing for La Marmotte, planning to climb Alpe d’Huez yourself, or just enjoy the atmosphere of mountain cycling, I hope this video can inspire you and that it gives a real sense of what the day is like. 📺 This is my second video, following my La Marmotte story. There’s more to come from future races and training, so if you’d like to follow along: ✅ LIKE if you enjoy the video ✅ SUBSCRIBE for more cycling content – race experiences, training insights, and classic climbs 💬 Feel free to leave questions or comments – I’m happy to share what I’ve learned along the way.
