Carole: tour with a social vocation |

Located not far from Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport, Carole is a 2055 m circuit inaugurated in 1979 with the aim of putting an end to the draws of wads – often fatal – organized in the Halles of the Parisian market of Rungis. Thanks to the mobilization of many bikers and the support of a TV star of the time, Yves Mourousi, the route opened its doors at the beginning of 1980. Its name pays homage to the last victim of the wild runs of Rungis: Carole Le Fol… The only French circuit to make its bitumen available free of charge to motorcyclists 26 weekends a year, it has a real social vocation and is part of the French motorcycling heritage. So many arguments that convinced the FFM to take over management in order to ensure its sustainability.. |
