LAPIERRE NEWS - archivesSeptember 2009

A race in which the two contenders are a pro cyclist and a motorcyclist seems crazy, doesn’t it? Well not that much: Hutchinson decided to create an urban race: The “Across the Town” challenge will take on September, 24th, in Paris’ streets...

Anthony Roux is much more than the French revelation of the year. Nicknamed “The Machine” by his team mates, he’s proven he’s able to get the job done, winning yesterday for the first time a stage of the Spanish Vuelta!

Jakub Riha, a seventeen year-old fourcross rider from Pisek, Czech Republic, who rides a Lapierre Airzone, experienced a fairylike dream in the UCI Fourcross World Championship 2009 in Australia, when he stood on the bronze podium!

It all started with a bronze medal after the relay race. Then Alexis Vuillermoz (Team Lapierre International XC) and Danny Hart (Team Lapierre powered by Saab Salomon ) finished 2nd and 3rd of their respective races. And finally, Cédric and Cécile , who finished respectively 6th and 7th, have shown they were in great form too!
