We had the pleasure of sitting down with pro-cyclist and our ambassador, Audrey Cordon-Ragot, when she picked up her Sarek Bike Carrier at our French office in Saint-Malo, which will make her tough journey to Paris 2024 a bit easier.
Listen to why she chose to collaborate with Mont Blanc and her expectations for the exciting year ahead.
Hi I’m oo French cyclist for human power health and Ambassador for MBL for me it was um it was a really nice um uh opportunity and and I’m really happy to work with a company like MBL for different reasons actually uh the first one is because is based half
Based in brutan in France which is the my region where I’m born and where I’m living so for me uh I always like to work with uh companies like next to my place and having uh the same culture as me and uh and just like being part of uh
Something happening in bran is always something um very nice for me and uh and it’s also based in one of the country I like the most in Europe which is Sweden um I’ve been uh uh racing a lot in Sweden I won my first world tour race in
Sweden in varda so yeah it was a lot of um um a lot of common points with me basically so uh to me it was it was easy to choose from and and um and to appreciate uh the company um with yeah all those uh uh common points but also
After visiting the company in Britain I realized like how much efforts they put in being um very um very close to um trying to be always better trying to build new products who are more respectful from the the the nature and the ecology uh that’s something that touched me as well
And uh meeting with people working there and seeing how they work um how they are building all the piece and trying to work really locally that’s also something that I like and that I’m I’m really like sensitive to um so it’s been uh yeah a lot of things that uh really
Um touched me and and uh and that I really appreciate uh working with them I think MBL is also um a company who is uh suppor Health in one way because it’s helping people to move uh on carrying on their um um their bikes but not only like you
Can carry your skis you can carry all the material you need to just go out and uh and move and that’s something uh that obviously is close to my profession as a cyclist uh uh we are always outside and and we love to see people riding their
Bikes so MBL is basically helping those people to just carry their bikes on really nice areas and and to just uh ride their bikes and and move and exercise so yeah it’s really like close to my values um in term of health and and um and
Nature 2024 is going to be a very important year for me um as a cyclist and uh more important as a French athlet of course because uh the Paris 2024 are coming up and uh as an athlet I really want to be part of the big event and
Being part of a piece of history that France is going to leave um so yeah next year is going to be my first goal like trying to qualify there and being there at the start front of the tfl and just enjoying the public and enjoying uh yeah being part of something very very
Special um but it’s a long way to go there uh I know how hard it’s going to be to qualify and to yeah to try everything and have no regrets I’m really glad and honored that mon Blan will be next uh to me for this journey it’s going to be a hard journey
And having such a support from everyone here is is very special for me and uh yeah I will have a part of uh a part of the company uh in my heart and I hope in my legs um on the start of all the big events coming up in 2024
