Cycling Disciplines

Gustaaf Van Slembrouck was a Belgian professional road cyclist from Ostend, born there on 25 March 1902 and dead in the same town on 7 July 1968. He raced as a professional from 1926 to 1934 and carried the nickname Den Staf. His career is remembered chiefly for the Tour de France, where he won four stages and wore the yellow jersey of the race leader for six days in 1926. That same year he finished second in Paris-Roubaix, the cobbled one-day classic. The source article is a short biography with a results table, so this entry states only the career span, the stage wins, the days in yellow and the Paris-Roubaix placing that it records.
