Cycling Across Borders
Neilson Powless & The Tour de France Journey
Houston




A Memorable Evening of Cycling, Culture, and Connection
We were thrilled to host a special event celebrating cycling, culture, and community, with a spotlight on American cyclist Nielson Powless and the legendary Tour de France. This gathering was more than just a discussion; it was a moment of shared passion, lively exchange, and a celebration of the deepening ties between Texas and French culture.
Together, we explored what it truly means for an American rider to take part in the Tour de France : the prestige, the pressure, and the pride. Through personal stories and open conversations, Nielson’s journey sparked thoughtful dialogue on perseverance, national representation, and the unifying power of sport.



We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who joined us! Your presence and energy made this event truly special. A sincere thank you as well to our partners and supporters, without whom this evening would not have been possible. Your dedication helped us create yet another bridge between our two cultures.
This event was a warm, convivial moment : a rich exchange that reminds us how sport transcends borders and brings people together. We look forward to many more moments like this in the future.
Merci & See you next time!
