The resident of the Fougerais Olympic Cycling Club (COCF) this weekend (February 13 and 14, 2021) competed in the French championships on the disabled track at the national velodrome of Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines.
Saturday February 13, Jérôme Beaumont took third place in the individual pursuit and won the 200-meter throw. “It’s a shame that this event is not rewarded, indicates the person concerned. I remain a master in the discipline after having already won it last season. This is my first victory in 2021. “
Sunday February 14, the Fougerais took second place in the kilometer. A disappointment for Jérôme Beaumont who had founded a lot of hopes in this event. “It was my main goal. Unfortunately I did not manage to win a tricolor jersey. I still improved my time. “ In the lead throughout the kilometer, the COCF rider was deprived of the gold medal by the last runner in contention. At the end of the morning, he took third place in the scratch.
“A covered velodrome for training would be ideal”
Finally, Jérôme Beaumont finished in second place overall in the omnium. “Overall, my results are better than in 2020. I just lacked a little preparation compared to my main opponents who, for their part, benefit from suitable infrastructure. A covered velodrome would be ideal to prepare for this competition. “
The next deadline for the Fougerais cyclist will this time be the French Handisport Road Championships on May 29, 2021 in Saint-André-sur-Vieux-Jonc in Ain. Here again, Jérôme Beaumont will have great ambitions. In the meantime, he should participate in the Coupe de France heats.
