It gets harder and harder to bear.”He explains in a video published on his social networks that he competes for the French team FDJ-Suez.

“I am very happy with everything I have achieved on the bike. It's beyond anything I could have imagined.”He adds that he will compete in the Olympic Games in Paris this summer.
