“KX en Y: a motorcycle model, a cross figure. The book and its title hold in these two key elements that define the cross-bitumen. The rest, it is the riders followed by Adrien Vautier who build it.
The photojournalist covered the daily life of these young cross-country enthusiasts who regularly burn the tar from their suburbs to Paris, taking all the risks. He delivers a complete and sharp vision of it, like the permanent danger that these bikers face during their group outings.
The photographic documentary tells this story: the group, the forgotten clans, the danger, the euphoria, the accidents, the police who are everywhere. The passion for bitumen has no age, background or limit. Going through KX eyes in Y is like feeling your heartbeat increase and getting a dose of adrenaline yourself”.
