Succeeding Sylvain Chavanel, the “Le Mans Style” start has been given by the former skier and car driver Luc Alphand, who finished 94th of the general ranking with 857km (532,5 miles) for the friendly Team Lucho (team of 8 riders). By the way, as the guest of honor, Luc Alphand concluded the event in the best way, saying that he will return.

“A successful edition, but tormented”, was saying Romain Gasnal for the organization at the end of this marathon race, before adding “I congratulate all the contestants, because the elements were unchained: we have known the heat wave at the beginning, the smoke of a forest fire just nearby, the storm around 4 a.m. and the rain just after”.

A vintage that we will remember and which confirmed that the Le Mans race track is not more slippery under water than our roads. The Sunday’s humidity even relieved the bodies maltreated by the temperature of the day before.

The suspense has held the visitors spellbound from the beginning to the end. At the head of the general ranking, teams such as Payname, S1NEO Team Connect, Les 4 Roues Motrices or Planète Vélo Avranches assured the show since the first’s hours. The former professional, Kilian Patour of S1NEO Team Connect, finally made the difference during the night in the tough conditions he likes. Victorious in 2014, the Payname team of Max Massat constantly chased to finish 1’48’’ after the winner. Even so, the Sablé Sarthe Cyslime team remains the distance record holder, which was obtained last year, with more than 1004 km (623,8 miles). The fate of the 3rd, 4th and 5th was only settled during the final sprint and it is finally Planète Vélo Avranches who completes the podium.

Sébastien Bertholet, winner in Man Solo in 2009 and 2014, repeated the feat as a soloist with 832 km (517 miles) in 199 laps, and a 124th place in the general ranking. In the women category, the Ukrainian Olena Novikova imposed herself with 669 km (415,7 miles) in 160 laps. She ended 322nd of the general ranking. The first 100% female team, Cofely Endel Gazelles, finished at the 126th place of the general ranking with 828 km (514,5 miles) in 198 laps. By the way, this team made the women best lap in 5’52’’.
