Rule Bretagne

[tifosa]

Having always been a fan of the enthusiasm shown by Basque countrymen and women towards their fellow cyclists, I'm pleased to see that Bretagne (Brittany for you anglophones) has stepped up to deliver an interesting mix of riders who hold great promise for their cycling crazy citizens (you know, the ones waving those distinct black and white flags along the route?

Having lived and ridden there for 3 years of my life, I'm VERY pleased!

No point at all. Just another vacuous post. If you want meaningful content, create it yourself.

Love your reply. ( from a 100% pure juice Breton who does not wave any flag, even the only colorless one that exists, gwen a du)

Yes.

Two branches of Celtic - Goidelic (Scots Gaelic, Irish Gaelic, Manx) and Brythonic (Welsh, Cornish, Bréton).

Hence the strong regional identity, and influence of what Euskaltel has been able to do.
