Everything seemed predisposed for Loïc Bruni to become a big name in downhill mountain biking. His father, Jean-Pierre, was one of the European pioneers in the discipline, collecting national and international titles throughout his career. Loïc watched and learned, succumbing to the passion of mountain biking from an early age.

In the wake of fellow French Riviera 'neighbours' Nicolas Vouilloz and Fabien Barel, the young boy from the Côte d’Azur soon showed off his downhill talents in junior races on the French circuit, as well as the French National Series.
