Michel Van Aerde

Cycling Disciplines

Michel Van Aerde was a Belgian professional road bicycle racer, born in Zonnegem on 2 October 1933 and dead on 11 August 2020 at the age of 86. He became Belgian national champion in 1961 and won two stages of the Tour de France, one in 1960 and one in 1961. His English Wikipedia article is short and names no team and no further season results, so this entry records what it supports: his nationality, his birth and death dates, his national title and his two Tour stage wins, with team and result detail left for a later source.
