Rouleur Classic returns for 2016 with famous names on show
Early bird tickets for the 2016 Rouleur Classic are on sale now, which will celebrate all three of cycling's Grand Tours
The Rouleur Classic exhibition is in November 2016, with the likes of Sean Kelly and Jan Ullrich among the names confirmed to be in attendance.
Last year saw Eddy Merckx, Alberto Contador and Lizzie Armitstead make appearances on the stage at the three-day event, which celebrates one of the Grand Tours each day.
Tour de France race director Christian Prudhomme will be present on day one to discuss great moments from Tours past and looking forward to the 2017 race, which will start in Dusseldorf, Germany.
Vuelta a España winner and Classics legend Kelly will be showcasing some of his memorabilia at the exhibition as well, with bikes, trophies and maybe even a Tour de France green jersey on show.
Away from the riders, WorldTour chefs Hannah Grant (Dimension Data) and Henrik Orre (Team Sky) will be hosting cooking masterclasses and offering nutritional advice, while photographer Scott Mitchell will be curating a gallery of his favourite pictures from his time with Team Sky.
The 2016 Rouleur Classic will take place between November 3-5 at Victoria House, London. Early bird tickets are available from £25 and are on sale now from www.rouleurclassic.cc.
