The Cycling Podcast / Kilometre 0 – From cyclist to sommelier


The Tour des Flâneurs takes a gentle deviation from the race route to visit L’Auberge du Père Bise where former pro rider Clément Chevrier works as a sommelier.

Chevrier, who rode for IAM Cycling and then AG2R, retired last year at the age of 28 having completed the Vuelta a España three times and the Giro d’Italia twice.

The transition from the pro peloton to life after cycling can be a difficult one, especially at an age when many riders are just approaching their peak.

But Chevrier has swapped one passion for another and now shares his interest and knowledge of wine with the customers at the smart restaurant overloooking Lake Annecy. Does he miss the peloton? On days like this, when the rain falls persistently all day, his expression says it all.

Thank you to Clément and chef Jean Sulpice for making The Cycling Podcast so welcome at L’Auberge du Père Bise, which you can find in Talloires.
