6 Heures De Mervent is a road-cycling ride held in Mervent, located in the Vendée department of western France. Scheduled for September, the specific date is yet to be finalized. The event is a “rando vélo de route,” meaning a road-bike outing offering various distance options, distinct from running races or triathlons.
Riders may select routes of 28, 56, 84, 112, or 140 km. The elevation gain corresponds directly with the distance chosen: +540 m for 28 km, +1080 m for 56 km, +1620 m for 84 km, +2160 m for 112 km, and +2700 m for 140 km. Consequently, even the shortest route presents significant climbing.
