Georges Chappe

Cycling Disciplines

Georges Chappe, nicknamed Jojo during his professional career, is a retired French cyclist born on 5 March 1944. He rode as a professional from 1965 to 1975. His best-known result came in 1970 when he won the Critérium International, a stage race. In 1968 he won a stage of the Tour de France, but in 1971 he finished the race as its lanterne rouge, the rider in last place overall. Before turning professional he also competed in the team time trial at the 1964 Summer Olympics. The English Wikipedia article is short and gives these career markers rather than a full results list, so this entry records only what it supports and points to the Cycling Archives record that the article links.
