Armide Soliveres on Hard Work, “Looking for Luck,” and the 2024 World Title.
In our fourth episode of IBC Beyond the Tour, we sit down with the 2024 World Champion, Armide Soliveres, the first Spanish and Canarian rider to ever claim the men’s world title.
At only 24 years old, Armide has transformed from a “fish” at La Cícer into a global force, balancing his career as a pro athlete with his role as a rising businessman through his brand, AS24.
In this deep dive, Armide pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to reach the top of the podium. He addresses the misconceptions about “luck” and family money, revealing the grit and discipline required to fund his journey independently.
He also explains the technical evolution he underwent to defeat legends like Pierre-Louis Costes and Amaury Lavernhe, shifting from safe, high-scoring combinations to risking the biggest maneuvers in every heat.
