NICOLAS FLEURY
"Prefer a “whoops” than a “what if”
My name is Nicolas Fleury, I'm 27, I grew up in Besançon in Franche Comté and now live in Paris. What do I do for a living? I'm a professional freestyle trials mountain biker, a mix of obstacle clearance and aerial tricks, all with a bike between my legs.
My days are often split into 3 distinct parts: firstly, training (whether on the bike, in weight training, running, etc.), then working on events where I perform in shows and conferences, and finally working on my image, whether via social networks or conventional media (TV, radio, press, etc.).
DISCOVER HIS PROFILE ON INSTAGRAMI'm not sure I chose this sport, but with hindsight I'd say I love it for its complexity. Whether it's physical, technical or psychological, trials is ultra-complete and the slightest weakness in one of its 3 pillars sends you to the bottom of the competition rankings. Since I stopped competing to devote myself to street trials, another important pillar has been added to my work: creativity! It's for these 4 things that I love my sport.
My aim, through my profession and my passion, is to reach out to more and more people, whether through the events at which I perform in shows or conferences, or through my social networks. Why do I speak to these people? To convey the values and character traits I hold dear: hard work, humour, ecology and kindness.
2 times French mountain bike trials champion
1x World Champion with the French MTB Trials team
3rd place in the European Junior MTB Trials Championships
Competitions worldwide (France, Switzerland, UK, USA, Italy, Spain, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Germany, Netherlands, China, Polynesia, Belgium, Austria, Morocco, Tunisia, Turkey, Egypt)
For me, Cairn is a small family that allows me to realise my dreams in complete safety.
