I’m really happy to have such good riders representing so well those disciplines, with in Enduro, Jamie representing the adventure, incarnating the enduro spirit and Aurélien representing the versatility and competitivness that an Enduro rider needs to have.

“Following my great 2013 season, I was looking for the best way to continue riding in Enduro at such a level. Fabien and the Polygon UR structure offered me the complete package and the team projects coïncide with my own. I’m also really interested in helping the brands that support us in getting up to the highest step on the podium; as that’s where I expect to be in 2014!”
Aurélien Giordanengo
“Fabien suggested that I join the team to race Enduro. From the start this sounded like a great idea! It’s a very professional team but that also has a very fun atmosphere. This Enduro challenge is new for me and will be really motivating along with the few DH races I’ll take part in. The first few runs I’ve taken on the Polygon have been really positive, I can’t wait for the racing season to begin and start my new carear in enduro.”
