Roger Rivière

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roger Rivière (23 February 1936, Saint-Etienne - 1 April 1976, Saint-Galmier) was a French road bicycle racer.

He almost won the 1960 Tour de France, but crashed on the Perjuret descent.

After this he was almost completely disabled, and so he opened a restaurant in Saint-Etienne called 'Le Vigorelli', then a garage, and finally a holiday camp in the Rhone Valley.
