The traits d’unions européens (TUE)

The traits d’unions européens, organised together by the ASPTT St-Quentin and the European Cycling Union (UECT) consist of linking, in one direction or another, Paris to the capitals of the European Union, more widely to all the capitals of Europe, with a view to link the capitals between themselves.

The first one was Paris to Luxembourg in 1983.

Control points are spaced out, and the routes, as quiet and touristic as possible avoiding large towns, have all been researched by bike.

Cycling fans, outdoors enthusiasts, those who want to escape the pressures of a polluted environment, who want to see Europe in a sporting way but without time limits, to see the sights, meet people, get to know the locals and to share the values of friendship and solidarity, have made up the stream of 3893 TUEs accomplished since their creation.
