Training camp at Centre Laurent Fignon
One of the great names in cycling, Frenchman Laurent Fignon was born in Paris in 1960. He had an impressive career from 1982 to 1993, winning over 80 races — his most brilliant feats being his victories in the Tour de France in 1983 and 1984 and the Giro d’Italia in 1989. He acted as commentator for the Tour de France in 2006 and consultant for France Télévisions during the Grande Boucle in 2009, the year he released his biography entitled Nous étions jeunes et insouciants (We were young and reckless). At the Centre Laurent Fignon, you will be welcomed by a pro!
