Delta Plus and the world of mountain biking: shared values
One of the reasons Delta Plus wanted to be associated with the renowned sporting event that is the Roc d'Azur CIC is because we share common values and objectives.
Starting with the importance of controlling risks: mapping out one's route and striving for performance in a demanding environment, while ensuring optimum protection from head to toe, is the first thing a mountain biker has in common with Delta Plus, the world leader in personal protective equipment.
Another shared value is the desire to practice sustainable cycling. Preserving the natural environment, promoting soft mobility and encouraging sports that are beneficial to health are just some of the principles of mountain biking. In the same way, Delta Plus strives to manufacture products that comply with professional standards to protect workers, while incorporating increasing environmental requirements into its processes.
The Roc d'Azur CIC in figures
40th edition, the first was in 1984
20,000 participants
300 exhibitors
100,000 visitors over 5 days
8 disciplines: mountain biking (competition, rando), electric mountain biking, gravel, road biking, trail, triathlon and walking
Highlighting an area: the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region
The Roc d'Azur CIC and Delta Plus partnership is also a joint way of helping to raise the profile of an area: the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region
The sporting event highlights the sublime landscapes of the Massif des Maures and the Esterel, the towns of Fréjus, Roquebrune-sur-Argens, Saint-Raphaël and Sainte-Maxime, our forests and coastal paths. In the same way, Delta Plus, an international group, is rooted in the region and is committed to developing its talents.
Its CEO, Jérôme Benoit, was one of the torchbearers last June, alongside a number of prominent figures from the Vaucluse region.
So becoming an official partner of this event was an obvious choice for us.
Experience the passion of cycling at the Roc d'Azur CIC 2024: on the programme
During this anniversary edition, Delta Plus will be supporting in particular the ‘Roc Trophy #5’, one of the flagship competitions of this sporting event. This race takes place over 5 days, with one stage each day, so there's plenty of excitement in store!
We're also giving away race numbers to around a hundred competitors in all the races: if you're an employee, a customer or a member of two local mountain bike clubs, you can take advantage of this opportunity to take part.
Finally, the Roc d'Azur CIC is also a Village: you can find us on our 50 m2 stand alongside cycling, outdoor and tourism experts. You'll be able to discover a host of activities and meet mountain bike champions Laïs Bonnaure and Noa Filippi.
Dates: in Fréjus from 9 to 13 October
