00:10 Hello and welcome to this July 20th JT.
00:13 Here are the headlines this Thursday.
00:15 A petition for the return of Avoine Beaumont Gymnastics to the top 12.
00:20 The competition's triple champion club has been retrograded to national 1 for the 2023-2024 season.
00:26 A decision made in a tense situation between the club and the French Gym Federation.
00:31 Survoletour is the only airshow in France.
00:35 That's what the company Air Touraine has been offering since the La Gloriette park.
00:39 An experience we've tested for you.
00:42 Finally, let's head to a career of a tufo, transformed into a place of art and wine tasting.
00:47 We'll introduce you to Sugite, a postcard of Troglo Degusto,
00:51 this underground place that offers unusual visits.
00:55 But first, a black series continues on the roads of Indre-et-Loire.
01:00 After Saint-Benoît-la-Forêt and Azèle-Rideau, this time it's at the Ville-aux-Dames that a fatal accident took place.
01:06 Yesterday, at the end of the afternoon, a 49-year-old motorcyclist died after a collision with a car on the D140.
01:12 The driver of the car was seriously injured and was taken to the hospital in Trousseau.
01:18 Sport now, with a decision by the French Gymnastics Federation that is making a lot of noise.
01:24 The retrograding of the Davoine Beaumont club to National 1, announced last week.
01:29 A club that is a triple champion in title, but that has known for some time tensions with the Federation.
01:35 A petition was launched by the Gymnastics Justice to demand the club's return to the top 12.
01:42 In only 7 days, nearly 2,500 signatures have been collected.
01:46 Explanation by Romain Delville.
01:49 It's a new conflict, a ninth conflict, that opposes the French Gymnastics Federation and the Davoine Beaumont club.
01:56 Triple winner of the top 12, the French elite championship of the clubs,
02:00 ABG puts retrograde with two other clubs, Yerres and Schiltigheim.
02:05 "We, at the technical level, the problem that will arise at the technical level,
02:09 is that we will, in theory, find ourselves with two teams in D1.
02:13 So a team that is retrograde, a team that goes up.
02:16 And since it is not possible, the regulations do not allow it,
02:19 it necessarily poses concerns because we have a team that will stay in fact in D2,
02:25 a team that will go down.
02:27 And it's true that in the preparation, it was not at all the objectives. "
02:32 It's actually only half a surprise for the Davoine club.
02:35 The Federation removed the club formator label from it last March,
02:39 relying on new criteria such as the respect for the image of the FF Gym.
02:45 And for the next season, the top 12 clubs must imperatively have this label.
02:51 Since the announcement of the three retrogradations,
02:54 a petition has been put online and is approaching 2,500 signatures in a few days.
03:00 "Local support, national support, support through signatures,
03:03 phone calls, SMS, all the support messages that the club receives,
03:09 that we receive, that the president receives, yes, it's hot in the heart, that's for sure. "
03:13 For its part, the Davoine Gym club will appeal the federal decision
03:18 and the case will turn to the TAS, the arbitral court of sport.
03:24 A hundred-year-old oak tree from the Botanical Garden of Tours has just been cut down.
03:30 The tree was dead, victim of the Armillaria mushroom,
03:34 which attacks the roots of the trees and kills them with a small fire.
03:37 It was not an easy task for the city's flood victims.
03:40 The operation lasted two days. This oak tree had been planted in the early 20th century.
03:45 You may have noticed it this morning, a flyover flew over the south of the city of Tours.
03:51 And TV Tour was on board.
03:53 This is the only flyover in Airshow in France.
03:56 After the flyover of Chenonceau, the Air Touraine company will now offer flyovers
04:01 above the city of Tours.
04:03 A 20-minute walk up to 200 meters above sea level.
04:07 The departure is at the Gloriette Park.
04:10 Léa Turquier tested for you with Clémence Dosc.
04:13 I'm at the Gloriette Park. It's still early in the morning.
04:16 The sun is not yet up and I'm about to go for a ride in a flyover.
04:20 But the first step is the inflating.
04:22 After 45 minutes of preparation, it's time to take off
04:34 aboard the only airshow flight in France.
04:38 There's a sense of silence.
04:52 It's like we're flying over the city and the balloon is above us.
04:56 It's quite pretty.
04:58 The difference with the airshow is that you can fly.
05:00 You can see the city at 180 degrees, 360 degrees.
05:04 You can see everything. That's what's nice.
05:06 The flight lasts about 20 minutes.
05:13 It's very smooth.
05:15 When you're inside, you have a view of the whole city of Tours
05:18 and the Gloriette Park.
05:20 It's a moment suspended in the air and in time.
05:23 40 meters long, a maximum speed of 25 km/h,
05:29 the immersion is complete for this first start of the season.
05:33 The air-tourane flight can accommodate 3 people,
05:36 plus the pilot, and can rise to 200 meters.
05:40 The big advantage is that we can also attract
05:43 all disabled people, PMRs, people who have a lot of difficulty walking.
05:47 Why? Because it's something that you're sitting on.
05:50 You're attached. It's on tires.
05:53 So when you land, it's really, really heavy.
05:55 You really think you're on eggs.
05:56 We're opening the season with this flight this morning,
05:59 and I hope there will be lots of other flights this year.
06:01 The flight costs €259 for the southern flight of Tours
06:05 and €289 for the southern flight of Chenonceau.
06:08 A price for an unprecedented experience in the search of its audience.
06:12 After this flight in the air, we're back on Earth,
06:16 and even underground, to discover an unusual place,
06:19 a tufa quarry, 35 km underground,
06:22 where you can visit a part of with Troglo Degusto.
06:26 The company has made it a place of art and wine tasting,
06:29 produced on its own.
06:31 I invite you to follow Florent Clavel on the tour.
06:34 It's our postcard.
06:36 It seems that today is one of the hottest days of the year,
06:47 more than 30 degrees Celsius.
06:49 So we decided to put on our jackets.
06:51 Behind me is a quarry,
06:53 and I'll tell you, I even took my little wool.
06:55 We're in Bourrée, in the town of Mont-Richard-Val-de-Cher,
06:59 a site known for housing more than 400 km of underground galleries,
07:03 like that of Troglo Degusto.
07:06 Hello Stéphane.
07:08 Hello Florent.
07:09 And hello Margot.
07:10 Hello.
07:11 Stéphane, the caveman, is that right?
07:13 It's him, not self-proclaimed,
07:15 but that's how I'm designated on the territory,
07:17 and I'm not too proud of it.
07:18 You're the founder of this cave, what do you call it?
07:23 Let's talk about a career, in fact, on Bourrée.
07:26 We are the cradle, one of the cradles of the Tufon,
07:29 this stone that made the reputation,
07:31 and still makes the reputation, of our destination,
07:33 our very dear centre Val-de-Loire.
07:35 How did you come up with the idea of paying homage to this career,
07:39 and making it live today?
07:40 We see it on the walls, there are pictures of the time.
07:42 Where does this idea come from?
07:43 First, a stroke of heart, and then a stroke of madness as well.
07:46 We had to dare to enter one of the 35km of three-storey buildings,
07:51 and little by little create this concept,
07:54 and allow our visitors to immerse themselves,
07:56 and to go back in the history of the Châteaux de la Loire,
07:59 seen through the prism of this stone.
08:01 Digged in the 13th century for the most recent ones,
08:03 these careers were then used as mushroom huts,
08:06 and were often abandoned.
08:08 Stéphane Jousseau, on the contrary, decided to make it a place of history,
08:12 but also of art.
08:14 Stéphane, this is a career that lives,
08:17 at least an artistic career, and is very beautiful to look at.
08:20 Indeed, it was a beautiful sleep for almost twenty years,
08:23 and today it lives again, and lives again through the prism of contemporary art.
08:27 This gallery is entirely dedicated to this contemporary art.
08:30 Since 2016, artists have come to express themselves on the rock,
08:33 with an imposed theme, which is time.
08:36 We can appreciate this fresco, for example, by Nico Boucher,
08:39 who was inspired by the quarry,
08:41 and here by the mushroom makers, a little further on,
08:44 by Léonard de Vinci or Ocuzaye,
08:46 by Léoïse Carole or Baudelaire, Rimbaud.
08:49 But in Troglo des Gousteaux, there is above all "des gousteaux",
08:53 a cheese and rillettes shop,
08:54 the place where you can discover the products of the terroir.
08:57 The star here is the wine, from the family domain.
09:01 It is grown here, even underground,
09:03 in a constant temperature of 12 degrees.
09:06 Whether for the traditional method, the Champenoise method,
09:10 or for our unrestrained wines,
09:12 we let them rest, in general, let them age for a few years,
09:15 one or two years, two to three years, it will depend on the cellars.
09:18 But here, indeed, they live a little bit here, these wines.
09:21 Troglo des Gousteaux is open from Easter to the Toussaint,
09:24 starting at 13 euros with tasting.
09:27 Obligatory reservation on troglodegusteaux.fr,
09:30 at 0608 11 71 40.
09:34 This is the end of this newspaper.
09:37 Tomorrow you will find Florent Clavel.
09:39 Thank you for following us.
