Mathis Desloges

“I really enjoyed myself; there was a great atmosphere and I had a brilliant time. The GFNY is a bit of a tradition for me – every year in May it marks the start of my training, so it’s a great opportunity to do a bit of cycling and enjoy the roads of the Vercors. For me, the GFNY consists of races that are very fast and great fun. It was an honour to be on the starting line for this race and to be able to show off this beautiful area to everyone who took part. I think lots of people will come back because the scenery is magnificent. As an ambassador for Villard-de-Lans, I’m delighted to share my experience of this sort of event. It’s not just about competition – it’s also about having fun – so grab a race number and enjoy yourselves!”
