Gisors welcomed representatives of Eure Departmental Committee of the French Cycling Federation on the occasion of its annual general meeting.

At the start of the meeting, the president Jean-Luc Delugan greeted the host of the day.

“A big thank you to the Entente Gisorsienne which welcomes us and to its president Pascal Cambour as well as his team, who took up the challenge brilliantly to offer us an extraordinary space constituted by this magnificent Guernica room which allows us to meet in optimal conditions.

27 clubs in Eure

Once the pleasantries were over, room was made for the numbers.

The Departmental Committee has no less than 27 affiliated clubs with 1070 members.

The largest clubs are Évreux BMX with 184 licensees, Verneuil BMX with 131 licensees and UV Neubourg with 77 licensees.

First-time licensees have jumped in recent months since the departmental committee lists 240 this season, or 22.4% of the overall workforce.

And in order to give all these cyclists who want to swallow the kilometers of tarmac a good ride, no less than 85 sporting events have been proposed in Eure in 2024.

various events such as: time trial, mechanics, address and cyclo-cross.

The team classification saw the victory of UV Neubourg ahead of Guidon d'Or Evreux-Gravigny and Entente Gisorsienne.
