I had a nice vacation planned to Provence for some challenging biking with La Corsa Tours (http://www.lacorsa.com/) and they just emailed me to tell me that not enough people signed up, and it's cancelled.

I'm quite upset. Anyone else know of any bike tours immediately before the TdF? I'd like to see a few stages afterwards. I'm looking for a tour with intermediate to advanced recreational cyclists and some challenging riding. It should be fully supported.

Bummed out,
Tim

All of Erickson's Tour de France timeframe tours were sold out. :(

However, I had some luck with a company called Breaking Away www.breakingaway.com

They had a tour with nearly identical dates and also in Provence. They managed to squeeze me in, so I'm on my way to France in June! I'll let you all know how it goes.

I am going in July on tour one to ride the prologue- team time trial. Tour one is still available from my understanding. Good Luck
