Vitres électriques, direction assistée, climatisation, caméra de recul, GPS, etc. : on ne compte plus les inventions qui ont changé le visage de la voiture moderne et bouleversé le quotidien des automobilistes. Certaines ont renforcé la sécurité. D’autres ont redéfini les standards du confort. La carte mains libres, elle, a simplifié les usages. Imaginée par Renault il y a 20 ans, elle a vite rencontré une grande popularité malgré un parcours semé d’embuches. Pascaline, Cheffe de produit transversal à la direction du produit Renault Group, retrace pour nous l’épopée de ce badge magique.
British skipper Samanatha Davies arrives back in Les Sables d'Olonne after over 100 days at sea during which she had to abandon the round-the-world, solo Vendee Globe yacht race.
She travelled around the world solo in 87 days, alone on a boat, racing against other sailors across at times turbulent seas and large stretches of being alone. Clarisse Crémer has completed the Vendée Globe, a race that has been called the Everest of the seas. For her first time entering the competition, after six years' training, the 31-year-old says her main goal was simply to complete it – but in doing so she smashed the previous women's record. Having sailed around the world, she says she now feels it's a smaller place.
The French sailor Clarisse Crémer (Banque Populaire) arrives in Les Sables-d'Olonne in 12th position. At the age of 31, she became the new holder of the women's single-handed round-the-world monohull record, succeeding the British sailor Ellen MacArthur. IMAGES
Yannick Bestaven may have won the ninth edition of the solo round-the-world Vendee Globe this week but there can be little doubt that Jean Le Cam, who finished in what he called the "jerk's position" of fourth, is the people's champion. The oldest skipper in the race at 61 and competing in his fifth Vendee, Le Cam said it was a "miracle" he completed the race. He not only rescued fellow competitor Kevin Escoffier in high seas in the south Atlantic but had to put up with his boat, officially called Yes We Cam! but unofficially Hubert, falling apart at the seams.
Cleats are the only fixed interface between bicycle and rider, so getting them into the right position won’t just keep you comfortable and ensure you’re efficient as possible, but can also help you avoid injury. There's nothing worse than changing over a set of cleats only to have put them in the wrong position. After all, it may lead to knee or back pain. So when it comes to getting your feet into roughly the correct spot, follow Stu's advice to get the best fit ️ For more information visit https://www.cyclist.co.uk/tutorials/1043/how-to-fit-and-adjust-cleats-for-cycling-shoes
