The winner of the 2010 Transdromoise hike and fly race through the Drome department of France last month was Michel Guichard, whose prize was a brand new Dudek Zako Speed mountain paraglider.
The week-long event was split into three stages, and weather conditions allowed more flying than the previous year, with almost all participants getting maximum points in the second leg and arriving in goal by paraglider in very good time. The third and final leg really split the participants, the first arriving in goal a day early, whilst others with a different plan ended up walking into goal or not making it at all.
The event’s ever-friendly atmosphere and the communal bivouac were reportedly as good as ever, and are all part of the appeal of this race.
