Léon Georget - "The Brute" - Frame Unknown

Loving these vintage images. Will post a few from time to time for inspiration.

Léon Georget (October 2, 1879 - November 5, 1949) was a professional cyclist born in Preuilly-sur-Claise, Indre-et-Loire, France. His notable achievements include winning the Bol d'Or race nine times between 1903 and 1919 in Paris, which led to him being recognized as The Father of the Bol d'Or. He also held the nicknames "Big Red" and "The Brute".
