Women TeamPointe du Raz Ladies Classic

Three great Breton classics will be on the programme for our riders this week: the Pointe du Raz Ladies Classic, La Classique Morbihan and the Grand Prix du Morbihan. Races that our riders will be looking forward to, without any hang-ups.

Amandine Fouquenet

I'm going to discover the Pointe du Raz Ladies Classic. I know that it's a race that uses roads, so it's a competition that could suit me. The Classic Morbihan and the Grand Prix du Morbihan are two great Breton classics that I really enjoy. I scored a top 10 in 2024 on the Classic Morbihan. I'm going to try and achieve a better result this year. As for the finish at the top of Cadoudal, a climb that will be used three times this summer on one of the Breton stages of the Tour de France Femmes, I know that it's a tough finish. But once again, I'm going to give it everything I've got, especially as the weather conditions look better than last year. One thing's for sure, I'm motivated - I'm obviously motivated at the start of all the races - but even more so at the idea of racing in our beautiful races and Breton lands, like the whole of the ARKEA-B&B HOTELS team which will be competing in this beautiful Breton triptych.

The Breton triptych is important to the ARKEA-B&B HOTELS Femmes team. The Pointe du Raz Ladies Classic is a very specific competition that uses paths and ribinoù. We have riders like Clémence Latimier, who is the outgoing winner of this event - although the format has changed this year - and Amandine Fouquenet, who can also do well on such a route. The Classique Morbihan has a more undulating profile. It's a tough race, with a fairly hard finishing circuit. And the final act will be the Grand Prix Morbihan, with the Cadoudal climb that will be used by the Tour de France Femmes this summer. The aim will be to work collectively and intelligently on these three events in a complementary way. We're racing at home, and the aim is for the riders to give their very best, with a view to making the Excalibur ARKEA-B&B HOTELS jersey shine in Brittany.
