Maurice Blomme was a Belgian professional road bicycle racer, born on 29 October 1926 and died on 11 April 1980. He competed in the team pursuit event at the 1948 Summer Olympics, a track discipline in which riders of a four-man team race the clock in formation. Two years later, in 1950, he won the 12th stage of the Tour de France. His career therefore combined track racing at the Olympic level with a stage victory in the most famous road race in the world, and the English Wikipedia article on him lists his major results and links to the Tour de France record of his rides.
