July 12 was a great sporting moment for Brittany. During the 102nd edition of the TOUR DE FRANCE cyclist. Two stages were organized in the Morbihan department. For an exceptional event, in short: an exceptional meeting with French cycling stars. Greg Lemond, his wife Cathy and Sean Kelly chose my establishment in Pluméliau to stay. A great moment of pride, you imagine!
Brittany is a well-known place for runners. Especially during the many Breton stages. They have a great pleasure to come back to take the time to relax during a step.
Greg Lemond, an honor for our town of Pluméliau!
And for good reason. Greg LeMond, American cyclist, winner of the Tour de France three times: in 1986, 1989 and 1990. As well as twice, the world road title in 1983 and 1989. Not to mention, a great victory in 1989, on the stage of the time trial: Dinard-Rennes. Irish: Sean Kelly is today, one of the most famous runners in history. With 190 victories in Pro, 7 Paris-Nice, the Tour of Spain in 1988... He is still second in the number of victories in the Tour de France point classification. Behind the rider Erik Zabel, with four green jerseys won. It is also known as « Mr. Paris-Nice ». Because of his seven consecutive wins in this race.

The presence of these riders has nothing to chance. They are part of the Euro Sports team. They deliver « Lemond on Tour ». Sean Kelly joined Euro Sport in 1998 as a consultant. He was joined by Greg Lemond in 2014. A change of direction after a full career.
Despite his unique rankings of great champions who have made them very great names in international cycling. I was able to discover simple people. During breakfast (long and tasty) we talked about their activities and many topics. I had a great time with them. And it seems that they too. As they kindly wrote to us in our Golden Book. Confirmed again during the journalistic interviews by Ouest France, Le Télégramme et la Gazette du Morbihan.
