Biography
As they say, “Gilles knows exactly where he’s going!” When it comes to organization and planning, he’s an expert! A recent retiree, he served as a police officer for over 35 years with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. In those roles, he demonstrated his leadership skills and his sense of supervision and responsibility. On his bike, his journey has taken him through Quebec, New England, Costa Rica, Alsace, and Austria. Gilles is always smiling; he loves company, life, and genuine people. Cycling is a passion he’s eager to share with you.
For me, cycling trips are the most memorable kind of travel, because cycling allows us to explore beautiful countries and savor every moment amidst breathtaking scenery. I cherish the memories of what I’ve seen, the experiences I’ve had, and the people I’ve met.
