Léon Louyet

Cycling Disciplines

Léon Louyet was a Belgian professional road bicycle racer, born at Loos-en-Gohelle in France on 7 July 1906 and died at Charleroi on 19 March 1973. His career belongs to the early decades of organised professional road cycling, and the one result his English Wikipedia article records is from the 1933 Tour de France, where he won two stages of the sport's most prominent stage race. The article is short and its results section lists nothing further, so this entry states only what the page supports: his Belgian nationality, his birth and death details, his discipline of road racing and his two stage wins in the 1933 Tour.
