After sponsoring Lyne Bessette in competition for many years, including when she was on the Saturn pro cycling team from 1999 to 2003 as well as during her time on the Canadian Olympic team in 2000 and 2004, Garneau renews its support of the Quebec athlete by naming her Garneau Ambassador. In addition to wearing Garneau helmets, shoes and apparel, Bessette will also have customized clothing.
Bessette is still very active on the cycling scene as she takes part in many training camps and events, namely as a gravel bike rider in New England. “My return to the Garneau family was simply meant to be! I wore Garneau for almost my entire career. Today, I am returning to the brand as an ambassador, more seasoned, my passion for the sport still as fierce, but more importantly, with so many adventures to share! Garneau has always supported me, both as an athlete, as a woman and as an event organizer; it is a precious partner with whom I identify, whether by my personality or out of pure joy!”
Lyne Bessette’s custom kit will be available for pre-order at the Rasputitsa Spring Classic next April 21, where Bessette will be wearing it to defend her championship title. You can also pre-order it online .
