Have a look behind the scenes and at some of the action from this years Andros Trophy in Alpe d'Huez. It's basically rally driving on ice, and yes, it's as much fun as it sounds!
The Relentless Freeze Festival did exactly what it said on the tin and those not wearing their ski jackets could be found with teeth chattering, huddled around the vin chaud stand wrapping themselves in a fruity alcoholic blanket.
The 26th season of the high octane action Trophee Andros makes its much anticipated return to Alpe d’Huez next weekend. Racing will take place on Friday 16th and Saturday 17th December at the ice racing track, which is situated behind the leisure centre in the centre of town.
Before the race came through the road was open to anyone who wanted to tackle the steep and demanding hill climb for themself. The town was full of cyclists and fans who had been lining the roadside for days in anticipation of the race, camped out in tents and caravans desperate for a glimpse of their heroes.
After four exciting days of racing in the Alps, Chris Froome emerged victorious in Paris for the third win of his career. Equalling the records of Philippe Thys, Louison Bobet and Greg LeMond who all have three Tour wins under their belts, and becoming Britain's first three-time winner.
