It was with some sadness that we heard of the Death of Guy Lapebie at the age of 93 this week  .

HWCC riders have  ridden the Lapebie events in Luchon for the last few years so in 2010 we will be putting in that extra effort .

Guy Lapébie (born 28 November 1916 Saint-Geours-de-Maremne; died 8 March 2010, Bagnères-de-Luchon) was a French professional road bicycle racer. Guy Lapébie was the younger brother of Tour de France winner Roger Lapébie. In the 1936 Olympics, Lapébie won two golden medals and one silver medal

So Chapeu to Guy and best wishes  to his Family and sister Bridgette.
