Pierre Beuffeuil (L'Eguillé, France, 30 October 1934〔http://www.lequipe.fr/Cyclisme/CyclismeFicheCoureur2441.html〕) is a former French professional road bicycle racer. He won a stage of the Tour de France after the rest of the field had stopped to greet Charles de Gaulle, the president.〔http://www.humanite.fr/2001-07-16_Sports_1960-Pierre-Beuffeuil-remercia-le-general〕 ==Tour de France== Pierre Beuffeuil was riding the Tour de France in 1960 for the regional Centre-Midi team〔http://www.ledicodutour.com/equipes/equipes_regionales/centre_midi.htm〕 when news came that Charles de Gaulle, the president, would be by the route at Colombey-les-deux-Églises, where he lived. The organisers, Jacques Goddet and Félix Lévitan asked the national champion, Henry Anglade, if the riders would be willing to stop. Anglade agreed and the news was spread through the race. Beuffeuil, however, had stopped to repair a tyre〔Some sources say he had stopped to be sick.〕 and knew nothing of the plan. He was three minutes behind the race. He reached Colombey convinced he would still be behind the race when it finished in Troyes, then found the race halted in front of him. He pressed on alone, now leading rather than following, and won the stage alone on the boulevard Jules-Guesde by 49 seconds.〔http://www.humanite.fr/2001-07-16_Sports_1960-Pierre-Beuffeuil-remercia-le-general〕〔http://www.memoire-du-cyclisme.net/eta_tdf_1947_1977/tdf1960.php〕 "I voted for de Gaulle", he said.〔http://archives.tdg.ch/TG/TG/-/article-2003-07-898/100-ans-du-touron-sait-que-la-naissance-du-tour-est-une-consequence-directe-de-l-une-des-plus〕 Beuffeuil won the stage from Montluçon to Orléans in 1966〔http://www.letour.com/HISTO/TDF/riders/fr/3396.html〕 after a break of 204 km.〔http://www.loiret.com/cgloiret/index.php?page=display&class=sport&object=r58_tourdefrance&method=i_display_full〕 He came third in the Four Days of Dunkirk in 1961 and again in 1966.〔http://www.velo-club.net/article.php?sid=14890〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pierre Beuffeuil」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
