Welcome Friends,

it is obvious that due to time constraints and the size of this website, it is impossible to translate everything. We just want you to get acquainted with our cycling club and hope you will enjoy the reading.

Cycle Touring has ……”A philosophy of Art and Good Living”.

Cycle Touring is a sport and relaxing activity.  It is considered more as a hobby. which allows you to sightsee, meet people, to help each other, and also to make friends, and is not competitive. It is a way to travel while cycling, alone, with the family or with a group, anywhere, at any age, in accordance with your own physical condition and at any time. It serves to accomplish journeys from shorter to longer distances, in several stages, with prepared itineraries or independently and freely, in your own time, in the country or foreign countries.

Our freedom:

At the Dragon Auxdax Mons you will receive a warm welcome, in a good atmosphere and friendship. You are all welcome to come and join us and do not hesitate to contact us at:

For the past 30 years D.A.M. encourages their members to cycle the well-known cyclo-hillside road Mons-Chimay-Mons. At the end of the year, especially at Saint-Sylvester, thousands of participants are invited to come and enjoy in good spirit a special night-walk.

 Members of D.A.M. are not constrained by strict or unnecessary rules.

 The Dragonnettes of Wednesday are known for their success.

Mons-Chimay-Mons, it's the first "Event of the Year" for the touring cycle addict. The courses range from 20 to 200 km. For the hardiest, the BCCB of 200 km takes you from Mons through Couvin and deepest Hainaut experiencing France on the way. It's as far as Chimay that the height enthusiasts come to; for the gain of height experience (there's no gain without pain!!) at the 150 km point. All of the other distances are equally attractive: 75 & 100 km in the valley of Thune, a 50 km assault on the Col del Saul and a gentle 20 or 40 km routes in the countryside. We all speak English (even very badly), and would welcome you with open arms.
