The former triathlete had been playing since the start of the year in N2 in the ranks of the Occitane Cyclisme Formation – Eurinvest team, with which she notably won the Grand Prix de Chardonnay in early April. As of today, Chloé, therefore, becomes a sailor, whom we will already be able to see on Saturday at the French Elite Women’s Championship in Cholet.
A word from Chloé Schonenberger:
“I had the chance to discover the team during the mountain course at the end of May, I settled in quite well and I enjoyed the atmosphere. It has always been my goal to get a place in a team of this level and this year when I saw that the results were there I said to myself that I had to believe in it. I did everything to make it happen and now I can’t wait to start racing with the team. I can’t wait to be in the French championships and to be able to start playing my role in this team.”
The reaction of Jean-Christophe Barbotin, Manager:
“Chloé comes to us from the UV Mazamet club and today at 24 she has established herself as the best punching sprinter at the French amateur level. In particular, she won a round of the Coupe de France in the sprint. She is also at ease with difficult conditions such as in Vendée or on the Boucles de Seine-et-Marne where she took 3rd place. She is one of the best in the national ranking. Eager to step up and her profile failed us because we didn’t really have a puncher-sprinter. Integrating it now is preparing for the future. For her first race with the team during the French championships, I expect her to adapt to the strategies and operation of the UCI teams, of which ours is a part.”
