Road FDJ Team

         

 

Lapierre begins its 10th season as close partner of the FDJ with more than enthusiasm! A collaboration that has lasted so long is something of  a rarity in the cycling world, and it deserves to be celebrated.
 

The adventure started after a meeting between Gilles Lapierre and Marc Madiot, emblematic leader of the FDJ team and a passionate cyclist with values and conviction. With two Paris-Roubaix titles under his belt, he’s been part of the professional peloton as a rider and now a directeur sportif for years now, so when he puts his team in our hands, we rise to the occasion to surpass his expectations.

Our partnership is built on common values: being close to the riders, a strong code of ethics, hard work, longterm results, and a firm belief in young talent. The French public seems to agree, making the FDJ their favorite team since 2006. Ten Tour de Frances (6 stage wins), 7 Giros (2 stage wins), 6 Vueltas (2 stage wins), 2 Paris-Tours, numerous world and national titles, including 6 National Cyclocross Championship titles for Francis Mourey…the FDJ jersey has been everywhere.

Today, the FDJ has a new direction and even higher ambitions. With team leaders Sandy Casar, Frédéric Guesdon, Francis Mourey and Benoit Vaugrenard as a foundation, up-and-coming riders such as Jérémy Roy and Anthony Roux will have to prove that they are the future generation of cycling. Along with newcomers Pierrick Fedrigo and Rémi Pauriol, it’s their turn to give it their all.

For his 1st season as a professionnal rider, Arnaud Démare, U23 World Champion in 2011, wants to prove he's a safe bet in the FDJ Bigmat Team.

We’ll be there to support them with state-of-the-art technology and an encouraging “Allez!” the entire season.
