On the eve of the second round of the Normandy Cup in Fécamp, Théo Guéret intends to play spoilsport against his own camp.
The small town of Fécamp, in Seine-Maritime, is set to buzz this Sunday, 8 November 2026, for the second event of the Normandy Cup cyclo-cross. Beyond the regional stakes, this race promises a rather interesting scenario: a clash between teammates within ES Torigny itself.
Théo Guéret, registered with the Manche club, harbours serious ambitions. Far from being content to play second fiddle alongside his own teammate Cyprien Gilles, the young cyclist wants to prove he has the qualities needed to challenge the big names in the discipline. An internal rivalry that could well electrify the atmosphere on the Norman paths.
This second round comes at just the right time for the overall classification contenders. After a first event that allowed the level of the competitors to be gauged, every rider now knows where he stands. For Guéret, the goal is clear: to pick up places and perhaps spring a surprise on terrain conducive to individual exploits.
Cyclo-cross, with its muddy sections, obstacles and relentless changes of pace, offers an ideal playground for the warriors of the bike. Normandy, with its rolling landscapes and often capricious soils, is a perfect natural backdrop for this demanding discipline. Fécamp spectators will be able to admire athletes at the top of their game, ready to battle it out in conditions that will put their technique and endurance to the test.
The question remains whether Théo Guéret will manage to keep his promise. Can ES Torigny afford a fratricidal showdown? One thing is certain: this Sunday, all eyes will be on those two.
