Pierre Gallien

Cycling Disciplines

Pierre Gallien was a French professional road racing cyclist, born in Paris on 19 November 1911 and died on 28 May 2009, at the age of 97. His best known result is a stage win in the 1939 Tour de France, the one stage victory credited to him in the English Wikipedia article about him. The Tour de France organisers publish his official race results, and a cycling archive page also lists his career record, so his palmares can be checked against those independent sources. The article that supports this entry is short, and it states only his dates, his birthplace, his nationality and the 1939 stage win, so nothing further is claimed here about his teams or other races.
