Addax Petroleum sponsored two cyclists, Ephrem Ekobena and Gaël Nzoghe, from the Gabon Cycling Federation, to participate in two key Swiss bike races: the “Défi Boscardin” on September 24th and the “Criterium de Montreux” on September 28th.

The two national champions also took part in an advanced mountain bike training, including a nutritional and technical development skills scheme. In addition to this, eight cyclists from Addax Petroleum’s Geneva office joined them for the ascent of the Salève Mountain (1397 metres), Haute-Savoie, France. This initiative reflects Addax Petroleum's belief in cultural diversity and youth potential development.
