This year, Infocrank offers all Haute Route riders the opportunity to try an online tracking system that gives realtime information on your position out on the course. Find the right saddle for you! Selle San Marco brings years of expertise to the Haute Route and offers an extensive range of quality saddles. Last but not least, every Haute Route rider will receive a little accessory that will make a big difference on rainy days – the Selle San Marco ass saver! 15,000 gels, 7,500 bars and 300kg of isotonic powder will fuel Haute Route peloton all the way from Anglet to Venice! Did you hear about the Scicon race bag + service? Awesome: sciconbags.com/ haute-route. Haute Route riders will also be offered a neatly designed Scicon backbag in their welcome pack. Finally the Scion team will be in the Grand Depart Village in the Scicon set up area to help you build your bike. With their GPS devices and navigation software, you should never get lost. For the Haute Route, the experts at TwoNav have designed and built our smartphone app. The perfect machine to train, whatever the weather. Gradually improve your performance with comprehensive data analytics and monitoring capabilities.

If you have any questions in the build up to your event, the most efficient way to reach us is via the online chat function at www.hauteroute.org. We can be reached directly during office hours, outside that you can still leave a message or email contact@hauteroute.org and we will answer as promptly as possible.
NEED HELP DURING THE EVENT? If you are away from the Race Village and can’t make it to the Info Point, you can reach the organisation by phone. The Haute Route hotline numbers will be communicated in August via the riders’ newsletter and will be printed on your Haute Route ID card.
