Léonard Cosnier: “A race that fits in with our training cycle”.

“We have a good team of road-sprinners. The ZLM Tour is a great Class 1 event. The time trial should enable Baptiste Gillet and Nicolas Milesi, our two specialists, to measure themselves against a slightly higher level of adversity and to gauge their level just a few days before the national championships. We’ll have two fast riders with us: Giosuè Epis and David Dekker, World Team reinforcements. We’ll take it day by day. The stages are flat and exposed to the wind, with the risk of tacking. This corresponds to our training cycle with the ARKEA-B&B HOTELS Développement team. Jean-Loup Fayolle, soon to be 19, who has more of a climbing profile, will be there to learn and broaden his palette in a terrain that’s not necessarily his own.
