Dylan Levesque was the only Millavois in the race this weekend on the slopes of Snowshoe, in the United States, for the sixth round of the downhill mountain bike world cup.
“USA treated me well today with my career best result. Really happy to bounce back on my pace.” It was with his words that the downhill MTB pilot from Millau announced his 11th place in the sixth round of the downhill mountain bike world cup which took place this weekend on the Snowshoe slopes.
The Millavois of the Scott team was the only local of the stage entered this weekend. Marine Cabirou, injured, is still absent from the circuits. And his brother, Rudy Cabirou, couldn’t make the trip because of the cost.
In sight, Les Gets
This 11th place is important for Dylan Levesque before the key stage of Canada, from August 5 to 7, at Mont Sainte-Anne. It is also his best ranking. In sight, the world championships at the end of August. They are organized in France, at the resort of Les Gets (Haute-Savoie).
On Saturday evening July 30, Frenchman Amaury Pierron returned to the heights by winning the Snowshoe stage (United States) ahead of Briton Bernard Kerr and Austrian Andreas Kolb. The 26-year-old Frenchman, who has won since the start of the competition in four of the first six races, is first in the general classification.
Among the women, the Héraultaise Myriam Nicole took second place in the women’s race. She is back at the top of the rankings after her disappointing seventh place in Andorra. It was the Swiss Camille Blanche, current leader of the championship, who finished in first place.
