Description
Raymond Poulidor, is a former professional bicycle racer. He was known as the eternal second, because he never won the Tour de France despite finishing in second place three times, and in third place five times. Despite his consistency, he never even wore the Yellow Jersey in 14 Tours, of which he completed 12.
His career was distinguished, despite coinciding with two great riders - Jacques Anquetil and Eddy Merckx. This underdog position may have been the reason Poulidor was a favourite of the public.
