Randonnée cyclosportive l'Esprit Creuse

La Rando'cyclo, organized by Creuse Oxygène and Sports Loisirs Dunois, takes place on Sunday, September 27, 2026, in Dun le Palestel. This cycling event is exclusively for road bikes, offering two routes: a challenging 153 km circuit and a more manageable 68 km option.

The event is open to both traditional road bikes and electric-assist models, provided all riders wear helmets and adhere strictly to traffic regulations.
For the longer route of 153 km, there are three key checkpoints offering refreshments along the way at Chéniers (40.3 km), Azérables (108.6 km), and Dun le Palestel upon arrival. The shorter circuit of 68 km includes a single refreshment stop in Chéniers before returning to Dun le Palestel for the final stretch.

For the longer route, tickets cost €25 until September 1st at noon, rising to €28 from then until September 25th, and finally reaching €30 for those who sign up on-site.
