Anatole Novak

Cycling Disciplines

Anatole Novak (12 February 1937 to 5 January 2022) was a French professional road bicycle racer. His career is summed up in the Tour de France: he won a stage of the 1961 edition, and three years later he finished the 1964 race as its lanterne rouge, the traditional name for the last rider to complete the general classification. The English Wikipedia article on him is brief and adds only that he died at Pierre-Châtel on 5 January 2022, at the age of 84. It also carries a major results section and links to his Cycling Archives profile and to the official Tour de France results for him. In this atlas he is recorded as a French road cyclist and a Tour de France stage winner.
