THE ETAPE SANFLORAINE, A RECORD EDITION
What more could you ask for this 5th round than an event in the heart of the Cantal, ranked among the best cyclosportives in France? Garabit Viaduct, Gorges de la Truyère, Vallée de Brezons, Pont de Tréboul, Monts du Cantal, and the crossing of the Planèze: there was no shortage of panoramas along the road this Sunday, to make the athletes forget the kilometers to cover and the very present summer heat. With over 970 participants, the Etape Sanfloraine set a new record this weekend!
3 ROUTES INCLUDED IN THE CYCLO’TOUR CLASSIFIED
This Sunday, August 12, the routes of the Etape Sanfloraine (159km), Gorges de la Truyère (122km), and Margeride (86km) all awarded points for the Cyclo’Tour Classified. On the long course, Maxime Limone won for the men in 4h34 alongside Elise Cagnard for the women, who finished in 5h38. On the Gorges du Tarn, Robin Bourdier finished neck and neck with Rémi Geniesse in 3h31 and was joined on the podium by Lucille Bellelle, first woman in 4h13.
