General
BAN
In November 2011, the Federation Francaise de Cyclisme's [FFC] announced that he would receive a back-dated 12 month suspension for violating anti-doping regulations after missing a drugs test having already had two violations concerning rider availability for testing. Due to the ban being back-dated, he was due to only miss a month's action as his ban expired on 23 December 2011. In January 2012 the Union Cycliste Internationale [UCI] announced that he would be stripped of all the titles he won during the period of his ban, including his gold medal in the sprint event at the 2011 World Championships in Apeldoorn, Netherlands. (cyclingweekly.co.uk, 06 Jan 2012)

FAN CLUB
He has a fan club called Gwada Tiger, designed to support him and promote cycling. (gregory-bauge.fr, 2011}

ATHLETICS CAREER?
In 2008 he spoke about his desire to launch an athletics career after his cycling days are over. "The day I decide to stop racing on a bike, nobody will be able to talk me out of trying to run the 100m. I told someone here at the Sports Institute that I wanted to have a go at running, and she must have told one of the heads of athletics because he came to see who this cyclist was who was talking about running."
