Classics Rider Florian Sénéchal Joins ARKEA-B&B HOTELS Team for 2024

Florian Sénéchal, a classics rider known for his role as a sprinter’s partner, will be joining the ARKEA-B&B HOTELS team starting from January 1, 2024.

In a statement, Sénéchal expressed his excitement about joining the team and highlighted the strong connection he felt with team manager Emmanuel Hubert:

“I love being part of the exchange. For me, it’s the basis of all communication. The one I had with Emmanuel Hubert immediately convinced me that the ARKEA-B&B HOTELS team was the one I should choose. Emmanuel knew how to find the right words, immediately put me at ease, and very quickly explained what he expected of me, and what my place would be within his training program.”

Sénéchal also mentioned Hubert’s ability to listen and the freedom he would have within the team. He shared a quote from Hubert, “I think you’re not yet fully fulfilled in your profession as a professional cyclist, and especially not yet at 100% of your abilities,” which motivated him to invest in the team and its goals.

The presence of fellow rider Arnaud Démare, whom Sénéchal has a strong relationship with, was another factor in his decision. Sénéchal expressed his belief that their partnership would be fruitful and supported ARKEA-B&B HOTELS’ ambitions to excel in sprints and continue to progress in classics.

Looking forward to the next two seasons, Sénéchal shared his confidence in being able to thrive within the team:

“All these good vibes quickly convinced me that ARKEA-B&B HOTELS was the team in which I would be able to blossom completely over the next two seasons.”
