Motivated more than ever, the Vélo Club de Grand-Case is ready to compete in the 67th edition of the Tour International de Guadeloupe, which kicks off this Friday, July 28. There is no doubt that the proteges of President "Moté" will be keen to make the club's colors shine on the Guadeloupe roads!
As usual, the Grand Club Case Bike Club team will be represented by very solid riders, all complementary to each other!
A stone's throw from the Grand Départ, the Saint-Martin squad has unveiled its six runners who will try to compete with the big names in the peloton. Unsurprisingly, the VCG team will be structured around its leader, Ludovic Turpin. The winner of the 2012 edition can count on his loyal lieutenants, starting with Nicolas Dumont, who also won the Tour de la Guadeloupe in 2009, without forgetting the two "Grégories" Blondin and Errin, Jayson Rousseau and Olivier Curier.
Without chauvinism, the formation of the Vélo Club de Grand-Case is "cut" to fight with the big teams of the peloton.
This is all the evil that we wish the VCG runners who can count on the support of their unwavering supporters, present on the side of the road and in front of their small screen! _AF
