Stunning images from the 2017 Polar Cannes International Triathlon

Sunday’s Cannes International Triathlon, one of the first major international events of the European season, saw big wins for Sebastian Kienle (GER) and Emma Bilham (SUI). Both cemented their dominance with very impressive bike splits on the challenging 95km course. (Full report HERE).

We’ve said many times how highly we rate this event, having had the chance to experience it two years ago. If you need any further convincing, check out this great image gallery courtesy of José Luis Hourcade.
