HE WAS ONE AMONG OUR SYMBOLS

10-06-2012

We'll miss you, Jacques Franck. We'll miss you so much !

For the B.I.G Challenge, your both names with Jules Dejace, always or so often together climbing with an advanced age, all the best or most beautiful climbs in Europe, were quite unforgettable. Now, since a few days, Jules is alone to follow this way.

Yes, sad news, Jack Franck died with an heart attack last week. He was one of the symbol of the longevity thank to sport and particularly cycling. In the civil life, he was a doctor in medecine and above all a kind man, always ready to include an association helping people.

In Rotheux, his club organized since a long time the Jacques Franck Tour (before named Redoutable with the passage on the slopes of the côte de la Redoute). This tour will be managed the coming sunday17th of June, with a start at the café des Moges in Rotheux (Belgium) since 8 AM.

Every year, with this event, we'll remember this great cycloclimber and B.I.G's symbol. Help us from there up to follow our way here just like you did before your accident, Jacques. We'll miss really you !
