Francis Castaing

Cycling Disciplines

Francis Castaing, born on 22 April 1959, is a French former professional road bicycle racer. His headline result is a stage win at the 1985 Tour de France, and earlier in his career he rode the individual road race at the 1980 Summer Olympics. The English Wikipedia article on him is brief: it gives his birth date, the stage win and the Olympic appearance, then lists a major results section and links to his Cycling Archives profile and the official Tour de France results page. Because a Tour de France stage victory and an Olympic start are both recorded, this atlas treats him as a French road cyclist who competed at the top level of the sport in the late 1970s and the 1980s.
