LAVAL FRANCE MAY 23 Simon Pellaud of Switzerland and Tudor Pro Cycling Team sprints during the 49th Boucles de la Mayenne 2024 Prologue a 54km individual time trial stage from Espace Mayenne Laval to Espace Mayenne Laval on May 23 2024 in Laval France Photo by Luc ClaessenGetty Images.

Simon Pellaud (Tudor Pro Cycling) rode away from the field and won Festivus of Gravel in Thorsbury, Alberta, his third victory of the off-road season. Teammate Jan Stöckli took second, outkicking Canadian Benjamin Perry (Guava x Castelli SOG) in the final kilometre.

Just one week ago Pellaud finished second overall at Unbound Gravel 200 before his largely solo day on the 190km route in western Canada on Saturday. At the finish line in Emporia he spoke about not wanting to suffer in the chase like he did at The Traka 360 or at Sea Otter Classic Gravel, finishing both of those races off the podium, but after 140 miles in a two-rider breakaway at Unbound he fell just short of the win finishing 42 second behind victor Cameron Jones.
