Heinz Wengler

Heinz Wengler was a German professional road bicycle racer, born on 27 September 1912. In 1937 he won one stage of the Tour de France, stage 17B, which he shared with Adolphe Braeckeveldt in a joint result recorded as ex aequo. His English Wikipedia article is brief and lists that stage as his only major result. Wengler was killed in action on the Eastern Front in 1942, and the article gives his date of death as 1 October 1942, when he was 30 years old. The article names no team, so this entry gives none, and it points readers to the Cycling Archives and the official Tour de France results page for further detail on his career.
