Biography

One of the leading French climbers for the future, Gadret hit his stride on the road after making the transition from cyclocross. A two-time national French cyclocross champion, things were going well for Gadret in the 2006 Giro d’Italia with a string of top 10 finishes in the mountains until he crashed out with a broken clavicle.
