Luc Leblanc Biography

Luc Leblanc is one of the most popular and richest Sport Cyclist who was born on August 4, 1966 in Limoges, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France. Luc Leblanc, a French professional cyclist, was born in Limoges on 4 August 1966. He was the 1994 World Road Champion.

1994 was his best year. Leblanc won at Festina the 11th stage in 1994 Tour de France, ahead of Indurain and Pantani, and he also won the 1994 Vuelta a Espana the mountains classification. He won the 1994 UCI Road World Championships later that year.

In 1999, Leblanc was fired by Polti, because Leblanc was injured and could not continue his career. Later, the Italian court decided that the dismissal was unfair, and Polti should pay Leblanc. In 2007, Leblanc sued the French and Italian cycling authorities and the UCI because he still had not gotten the money.

After his retirement, in a trial against Richard Virenque in 2000, Leblanc admitted that he had been using EPO to prepare for the Tour and the Vuelta.

Poulidor received the yellow jersey he won for leading the general classification. He had operations for his injuries years before the accident. In 1992, the effects of the Tour de France caught up to him and he was forced to stop at Alpe d’Huez. In 1993, his legs were still hurting and nothing was working. Luc Leblanc decided to stop his cycling career. He decided that he would not try to change to teams, and joined the Festina team.

Luc was left in hospital for six months. Luc was able to walk again after many operations. However, his left leg was 3cm shorter than his right and his strength was also lower.

In the 12th stage of the 1991 Tour de France Leblanc and Charly Mottet joined the decisive attack with Pascal Richard. Mottet won the stage but finished 7 minutes ahead LeMond, the classification leader. This meant that Leblanc became the new leader. Leblanc was 12 minutes behind the winner the next day and lost the lead over Miguel Indurain who would continue to be the leader until the end.

As a world champion, Leblanc had many offers from the world’s best cycling teams. He joined Le Groupement, but the team’s sponsorship ended one week before the 1995 Tour de France. Leblanc moved on to the Italian team Polti. Here, needing operations on his leg again, the results were not as expected, although he won one stage at the 1996 Tour de France.
