                   The Race Village will be open between 9.00am and 6.00pm. Before exploring the
                   village and visiting partners’ and exhibitors’ booths, make sure you follow the steps
                   outlined here.

                   A Kiss & Ride car park will be located near the entrance of the Race Village. You
                   can park for 10 minutes to take your bike box and luggage out.

                   Assemble your bike in the dedicated bike build area provided by Scicon.

                   Once your bike is assembled, you will have to pass a bike check. The bike’s brakes,
                   wheels, general condition and your helmet will be checked by the organisation. You
                   can then leave your bike in the secure bike park.

                   To collect your bib and Haute Route pack, you will need one form of ID.

                   Once you’ve collected your pack, attach your bike plate on to your handlebars. It is
                   forbidden to alter, cut or fold your bike plate.

                   Bring your bike box to the trucks where it will be stored during the event. The
                   luggage you brought with you on your arrival (we recommend a soft bag) has to fit
                   inside your 90 litre Haute Route travel bag. The race organisation will not transport
                   any other bag or wheels during stages.

                   We invite you to meet your teammates at 3.30pm before the start of the parade.
                   Signs with the name of your team will be located around the outside of the bike
                   park.

                   The non-timed parade will start at 4.00pm in the Race Village. You will ride 8
                   kilometres on the Promenade des Anglais. After the parade you can leave your
                   bike at the secure bike park to attend the briefing.

                   The first briefing of the week will take place at the Centre Universitaire
                   Méditarranéen (CUM) at 6.00pm, 65 Promenade des Anglais, 0600 Nice.
                   Attendance is mandatory.

                   To start the Haute Route the right way, we invite you to the Pasta Party which will
                   take place at the Théâtre de Verdure after the briefing.

   Finally don’t forget to explore the race village; purchase a coffee card for the week from Claud the
   Butler and visit our partners’ stands.

                                                                                                           11

N.B.: Auron is a small family resort offering limited hotel accommodation. Therefore, we have opted for apartment-style housing.
For this reason, there will be two separate twin rooms in one apartment (4 people) sharing one bathroom. Riders who have
booked single room packages will share an apartment with two separate bedrooms and one bathroom. However, you will benefit
from the confort of your own balcony and personal space. We hope you enjoy your stay.

* Breakfast will be available at the Gymnase in Saint-Etienne-de-Tinée. Riders staying in Auron will have to ride down to Saint-
Etienne-de-Tinée to have breakfast. Breakfast will be served from 5.30am to 7.00am. They will join the secured convoy coming
from Auron in Saint-Etienne-de-Tinée.

                                                                                                                                  18
