Steven Le Hyaric
Steven Le Hyaric combines ultra-cycling with a true spirit of adventure. His sporting journey is defined by extreme distances, remote regions, and a constant drive to seek out the unknown. Long before making a name for himself in ultra-cycling, he was already taking on major expeditions through deserts, mountain ranges, and isolated landscapes around the world.
His path into ultra-cycling was not driven by the pursuit of results, but by curiosity. After years of intense adventures, Steven wanted to find a new kind of limit, one that was no longer only out in the world, but also within himself. Ultra-distance racing became the natural continuation of that search. A shift away from simply discovering new places and toward exploring endurance, mental resilience, and the boundaries of human capacity.
His results underline that ambition. Victories at races such as Race Across France, Race Across Belgium, and the TransBalkan Race reflect his strength just as much as his top performances in major international bikepacking events such as the Tour Divide, Silk Road Mountain Race, Atlas Mountain Race, and Italy Divide. At the same time, he continues to be shaped by major adventures beyond traditional race formats, including crossings of six deserts, the Himalayas by mountain bike, as well as routes such as Paris to Dakar and Lhasa to Kathmandu.
Cyclite fits Steven because the products meet his demands in every respect. In a discipline where every detail matters, he relies on equipment that is lightweight, durable, and highly functional. What he values most is the combination of technical innovation and clear design. For Steven, that is not a secondary aspect, but a core part of his setup for races and expeditions in the toughest conditions.
Mindset: I am not looking for easy roads. I am driven by curiosity to discover what I am made of when things get truly hard.
