Lightness within the All Blacks. Monday afternoon, two members of the New Zealand delegation were seen… on self-service bicycles (Vélo’v) in Lyon, the city where their base camp is located. When they arrived in the Rhône, they warned: “You will come across us in the metro or on a scooter.” Left pillar George Bower, injured and out of the rest of the World Cup, and ex-international Andy Ellis, now a member of the management, climbed the demanding Fourvière hill.

In a video shared by the All Blacks on X (formerly Twitter), Bower, initially dashing, played the tourist guide. “Lyon is built around two rivers, the Rhône and the Saône,” we hear people say. It is also known as the capital of gastronomy. » An hour later, the pillar was not far off when he got off his bike. In its defense, the slopes of the Fourvière hill are around 12% on average. The two New Zealanders still relied on the support of a few passers-by who recognized them.

The Al Blacks have taken up residence in the capital of Gaul, where their base camp is located. They will play there twice, against Italy (September 29) and Uruguay (October 5). Before that, they will face Namibia on Friday evening in Toulouse.
