The Captain word : Our team is a young team, without experience in big races but with the aim and the desire of beeing a recognized team into the international competitions. Thanks to the support of our sponsors “Rios y Canoas”, “Sport HG”, “Lafuma”, “Ascensiones Guiadas”, “Climbat”, “Retols Planas” “Bes-T”, “Sportivament” and “Enric Joier” we planned a first international season racing in Aveyron, Bimbache and Costa Rica ARWC. Next year we will see!

Why the Aveyron Adventure Race ? :

Because we feel completely confident with Adrien, we know all his team is able to prepare a big race with no disappointment by the teams. Since the first edition of the Aventure Aveyronnaise we came every year, and we can say we are the first team from out of France who discover the magic of the Aveyron region in 2010 and we felt completely hunted by him

What are your goal on the race ? :

For the first year in the international competitions our goal is to finish the races and acquire experience for next years. For the moment no one doesn’t know who we are, but in a close future we like to be recognized as a regular team in the international races. And of course our goal is to have fun !
