Raid Caneo Nature
From July 28 to August 8, 2008, the Raid CanéO Nature will cross France from Versailles to Marseilles. For its first edition, the crossing of rural France in a competitive sport even very a nice challenge for adventure racers . No less than 37 teams of four competitors (of which at least a woman) confirmed their inscription to traverse 1.100 kilometers between Versailles and Marseilles as a practitioner horsemanship, the VTT, the kayak, speleology, orienteering, inline skating, ropework, canyoning and walking.
The Raid Canéo Nature, great raid in autonomy, will take place in the middle of the summer, between July 28 to August 8, between the Tour de France and the Olympic Games, and should impassion France which turns each year more to these practices, since the recent statistics reveal that more than 20 million French became followers of the nature sports.
The phenomenon was mondialisé besides since the first Raid Galloises created, like the Raid CanéO Nature, by Gerard Fusil. As of this first edition, the French are joined by teams coming from Belgium, England and Spain. The participation in such a test is very committed because, in addition to the variety of knowledge and techniques which the competitors must control, the race proceeds in autonomy. In certain points accessible from the course, two assistants can join the four sportsmen during the changes of activity. They provide them the essential equipment and food, without the stop watch ceasing turning. Actually, over the eleven days of race, the stop watch stops only five times,to regroup with the last competitors can joining the leaders.
The competitors are from 20 to 58 years old. They all are impassioned of sport but also of nature of which they are burning defenders. They prepare with the Raid CanéO Nature since the heart of the winter and intend to go at the end of their passion.
The Raid CanéO Nature will be followed by photographers of quality and a high level production line team which will forward each evening, of July 28 to August 8, of the free images of rights to the various European diffusers. The “cover” of the event will stick to the sporting and spectacular aspects of the test but also to the stories lived by these somewhat insane adventurers, to the beauty and the importance of the environmental and historical inheritance of France.
