France is undoubtedly one of the great cradles of world cycling, and not just because of the Tour de France or Paris-Roubaix, but also because it has a rich calendar of races in all categories. A good example of this is that starting next Thursday until Sunday, the department of Mayenne will host another ProSeries race, the Boucles de la Mayenne - Crédit Mutuel, where we will see again some of the cyclists who participated a few days ago in the 4 Jours de Dunkerque / Grand Prix des Hauts de France. It is another race for classics specialists, which this time includes a 4-kilometer individual time trial prologue.

Route

As mentioned, the race starts with a 4-kilometer prologue, while the other three stages have profiles that suit classics riders well. The third stage is the best opportunity for sprinters, while stages 2 and 4 will determine the general classification.
