In September 2013, Velo Club Tring (VCT) made a trip to the French Alps. The club stayed at Hotel Oberland, Bourg d’Oisans and cycled the surrounding area, including the climbs of Villard-Reculas, Col du Glandon, Col de la Croix de Fer, Col du telegraphe, Col du Galibier, Col du Lauteret, Alpe d’Huez, Col de Sarenne, Col d’Ornon, and the ascent to Villard Reymond via Villard Notre Dame.
