Ag2r have announced their teams for this weekend's Coupe de France races, Tour du Finistere and Tro Bro Leon.
Samuel Dumoulin will be one of the key riders in the team.
"I'm glad to see thatthe sensations come back little by little," he said. "I was able to get results in the races that suited me (3rd in the Route Adélie - 4th in Paris-Camembert).
"I managed to get a good base of fitness and it's good for the morale. I feel I have recovered and my health problems are behind me. We are in April and for me, the season started badly. I'm very motivated!
"The events of the weekend in Brittany are very lively. Generally, they are difficult races. You have to be aware of the wind and there is rarely a typical scenario. You have to be ready for everything! I have won the Tro-Bro Léon twice (2003-2004). It is an unusual event. In recent years, it has generally suited specialists. We have a nice group and there is nothing to lose."
For Tro Bro Leon which includes several gravel road sectors, the team will include cobbled specialists Damien Gaudien and Sebastien Turgot.
