At the exit of Puechabon, dozens of camper vans took advantage of a July 15 off to set up on a strategic coast. At the end of the morning, the pre-caravan passes and the brands begin to distribute goodies.

On the Saint-Mathieu side, we are waiting for the helicopter!
The Young Farmers 34 and the Fnsea34 designed a straw bale fresco at the Sainte Lucie d'Euzet estate, in Saint Mathieu-de-Tréviers. A “super Hérault” that they hope to see broadcast live on France Télévision thanks to images from the helicopter. The fresco took six hours of work yesterday.

In Lespignan, the enthusiasts are settled: “We are all cyclists in the family!”
In Lespignan, where the caravan is expected shortly before noon, the public flocks. Like Jérôme and Christine and their family: “We came to scout yesterday to find the right place to stand to see the cyclists pass. We placed ourselves in the curve because that's the place where they ride the slowest. We had already seen the Tour de France in 2016 in Argenteuil. We came to support Jalabert and Pogi, we are all cyclists in the family.”
