58th Tour du Limousin-Périgord – Nouvelle Aquitaine 2025 🇫🇷 (2.1) ME – Stage 2 – Thiviers – Grèzes (Les Côteaux Périgourdins) : 174,3 km
Tour du Limousin is a 4-day road bicycle race held annually in Limousin, France. It was first held in 1968 and since 2005 it has been organised as a 2.1 event on the UCI Europe Tour. In 2011 it was upgraded to an 2.HC event, and downgraded to 2.1 since 2013.
Sylvain Moniquet (Cofidis) took his first professional victory on stage 2 of the Tour du Limousin-Périgord, timing an attack perfectly in the final 2km to win solo in Grèzes as the general classification favourites failed to get a chase together.
The 27-year-old Belgian went away from a fractured lead breakaway group and held a narrow lead to the line, with Alexandre Delettre (TotalEnergies) taking second eight seconds later and Ewen Costiou (Arkéa-B&B Hotels) third, a further three seconds back.
After working for the vast majority of stage 2, Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale failed to come away with the stage win or the race lead, with Nicolas Prodhomme their top finisher on Wednesday in fourth.
Race leader Thomas Gachignard (TotalEnergies) was dropped in the final 18km of the stage as Decathlon ripped things up on the punchy Dordogne hills, and despite fighting valiantly, he ceded the yellow jersey to Costiou.
