No prologue at Pointe-à-Pitre this year, it will be on the Gourde de Liane velodrome, located in Baie-Mahault. The riders will have to do five laps.
This is indeed one of the notorious changes to the 2018 Guadeloupe cycling tour, desired by the committee officials.
This 68th edition will take place from Friday August 3 to Sunday August 12. The classification does not change: 2.2 at the International Cycling Union. We will have to travel 1 km 313 to find the winner of the 200 Tour, considered the flagship sporting event of the year in Guadeloupe, and undoubtedly the most popular!
It remains to be seen now who will succeed Sébastien Fournet-Fayard (Team Pro Immo Nicolas Roux). And why not a member of the Vélo-Club de Grand-Case? President Saint-Elmo Arnell, alias “Moté” and his staff communicated last week the list of the six riders selected for this new edition.
And the least we can say is that the Turpin, Rousseau, Parra, Guerrero and others intend to compete with the big peloton teams. History to show that the VCG is still there, there! _AF
