Sunday November 12, Peyrehorade Sport Cyclisme held its general meeting. After welcoming the members by Jean-Denis Gomez, the president, Dany Larrat, the treasurer, took stock of the exercise, which was satisfactory.

Jean-Jacques Villenave delivered a very detailed moral report, regretting the drop in numbers to 21 licensees, including seven riders. A decline which follows the trend of the federation. The partnership with Guidon Saint-Martinois allows for more motivating training, courses and racing participation for athletes.

Other elements of satisfaction appear, such as the growing success of the Tour du Pays d’Orthe et Arrigans with 16 teams entered; the relaunch of the cycling school, with a very motivated young rider (the contacts made during the associations forum were not all successful).

Degraded roads

The president once again highlighted the degraded state of the roads to access their headquarters, Maison Larrodé, and will go see the mayor again.

Finally, he mentioned the partnership with the badminton association for the occupation of the premises in exchange for participation in the organization of the TPOA and soon mixed cycling and badminton days: the “alliance of the handlebars and the steering wheel”, according to the president.

Coach Marc Péducasse is concerned about the distance of the runners, called by their work. However, they were able to participate in a significant number of various events. He recalled the title of Landes champion in category 2 won by Thibault Moussy.

Regarding the drop in numbers, the proliferation of clubs in the surrounding area had a big influence.

20e TPOA

2024 will see the twentieth anniversary of the TPOA, which will take place on April 13 and 14, 2024. This stage race between Habas and Saint-Lon-les-Mines is very appreciated for its organization, its structuring and its safety. But those responsible point out a major downside: road speed bumps in Saint-Étienne-d’Orthe and Claquin, in Bélus, pose safety problems for runners. Bastien Lamude, president of the Landes Committee, highlighted the work of the PSC, the only Landes club to organize a stage tour.
