TSP10: Thinking Of France

I’m working on a podcast episode about the French Grand Prix Series. I’ll include some history, details about the current format and memories of my first year racing it in 1996 for GT Vesoul 70. 

I should have it done in a few weeks. But it’s taking longer than expected as I really want to get the details right about the wacky points system that they used in the mid and late-1980s.

But to get you ready, today I’m covering some back story about how I got interested in the French triathlon scene. Essentially by reading two articles published in Tri-Athlete (UK) in 1988.
