gregory bauge, reigning sprint world champ. Born in guadalope, brought up in the suburbs of Paris, rides for France.
I would alos like to scotch all this talk of 'its a rich mans sport'. It is not: it is, historically at least, a poor farm boy's sport and, in france, spain, belgium, italy at least, access for poor riders is through hand-me downs from a huge infrastructure of enthusiasts. Contrys without that infastructure (UK, USA) have to rely on posh boys trying to look cool and continental :)
