Retired skier Philippe Marquis is still reaching heights.

Climbed another massive rock this weekend. This time on my bike, reaching the 14,265 ft. summit of #MountEvans in about 2h30 of fun uphill grinding ⛰□□☀️ With Covid-19 affecting us all in different ways over the past 6 months, the highest paved road in North America to the famous peak of Mt. Evans near Idaho Springs was closed to cars for the summer, but sill open for hikers & bikers. Couldn’t miss this opportunity to physically power myself up there even with the hazy sky from a few forest fires still going on in Colorado. Great adventures await!

Vous êtes nombreux à me demander quand seront les prochaines compétitions □ Pour le moment on est encore dans le flou le plus total ... Pas de coupe du monde avant début janvier (au minimum ), et en ce qui concerne les compétitions nationales □□ , les championnats de France sont annulés et les circuits nationaux dépendront fortement de l’évolution de la situation sanitaire en France ...
