In the spring of 2026, the iconic Circuit Paul Ricard will once again open its Formula One track to cyclists for unforgettable evening rides under the sunset sky. This popular event, known as Sunset Bike, offers an incredible opportunity to ride on one of the world's most emblematic circuits. Organized by Antoine Leclerc, a passionate cyclist and auto racing enthusiast, these sessions are designed for everyone—from families looking for fun outings to cyclists seeking training or competition opportunities.

The entry fee is €12 online or €15 at the venue; children under eight years old are admitted free of charge (strollers welcome). Safety measures include mandatory helmet use for all participants as well as illuminated rear lights on bicycles during evening rides.
