Bike and Run du Retord - Valserhône 2027

Bike and Run du Retord is an early-season bike-and-run event in the Bellegardienne area near Valserhône, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. It takes place at the Stade des Etournelles in Châtillon-en-Michaille and is scheduled for March. Teams share a single bike, alternating between running and riding, making the race a test of pacing, teamwork, and swift transitions, distinct from a standard road run or triathlon. The event, organized by Triathlon Bassin Bellegardien, features youth, XS, and S formats, offering a local club-racing atmosphere instead of a large, single mass event. The Bellegarde-sur-Valserine train station is under three kilometers from the venue, providing convenient access by rail. Valserhône's proximity to Annecy, Annemasse, and Bourg-en-Bresse attracts participants from the wider Ain and Haute-Savoie sporting regions at the season's outset.
