Équipes et Athlètes Professionnels

C’est grâce à la passion des cyclistes Marc et Yvon Madiot, tout juste retraités des pelotons, qu’est née, au début de la saison 1997, l’Équipe Cycliste Française des Jeux. L’année 2018 marque un tournant dans l’histoire de l’équipe, avec l’arrivée de Groupama, nouveau partenaire titre.  L’association de ces deux acteurs majeurs du sport français donne naissance à l’Équipe cycliste Groupama-FDJ.  Des moyens accrus et des ambitions décuplées pour la formation qui conserve toujours son âme et ses valeurs familiales fortes. En 26 ans, l’équipe française a remporté plus de 500 victoires, dont 14 maillots de Champion de France, 3 classiques Monument du cyclisme et 38 étapes de Grands Tours.

Depuis 2025, Miche est le nouveau partenaire technique de l’Équipe cycliste Groupama-FDJ à laquelle elle fournit des roues et des composants de la gamme Race Division, la ligne conçue pour répondre aux exigences des coureurs professionnels.

The Grip is the new elite gravel team born from a collaboration with Mattia De Marchi, strengthening the brand’s presence in the high-level international gravel scene and completing an already well-established racing commitment on the road and in mountain biking.

The Grip was created with a clear goal: to establish an official and structured presence in gravel racing, placing competition at the center while preserving the elements that make gravel a unique space—community, aesthetics, and storytelling. The Grip interprets gravel as a territory where performance and culture coexist, with racing remaining the primary driving force.

Leading The Grip will be Mattia De Marchi, a benchmark athlete on the international gravel scene, who will take on the dual role of team manager and rider. The Grip was born from a shared journey with De Marchi from the very early stages: a project developed together, step by step, starting from a shared vision of gravel racing. After committing to the Wilier project, Mattia contributed directly to shaping the team’s sporting and technical identity, becoming a foundational part of it.

Alongside him is Eddy Le Huitouze, a young and talented rider coming from the WorldTour, who has chosen gravel as the ground on which to relaunch his sporting career, bringing strong racing culture and great competitive ambition to the project.

Completing the roster is Jordy Bouts, an established athlete in international gravel racing with direct experience in the most important competitions. Bouts has chosen The Grip as the definitive step in his career, recognizing in the project the structure and vision needed to compete consistently at the highest level.
