Yes, that's right...why not race downhill through the narrow alleys of Grasse on a mountain bike!

French riders Yoann Barrelli, Loïc Bruni and Loris Vergier, took the top spots respectively in first, second and third. All three of them are local to the area, with Yoann living in neighbouring Vence, whilst Loic and Loris both hail from Cagnes sur Mer.

This video takes us down the course with fifth place rider Remy Metailler.
