Christophe Riblon (born 17 January 1981) is a French former road and track racing cyclist who competed as a professional for the Template:Cycling data ALM team for 13 seasons[1] between 2005 and 2017. He also competed for France at the 2008 Summer Olympics.[2]
Career
Born in Tremblay-en-France, Seine-Saint-Denis, Riblon won two mountain-top finishes of the Tour de France, including stage 14 of the 2010 Tour de France at the ski resort of Ax-3 Domaines in the Pyrenees, and stage 18 of the 2013 Tour de France at Alpe d'Huez.
During his 2010 victory, he was part of the early breakaway that went free Script error: No such module "convert". into the race, and he crested the penultimate climb of the day alone, the Port de Pailheres. He had a two-minute lead at the foot of the last climb, and held on to win solo as the general classification contenders were battling it out behind him.[3]
He won his 2013 stage following a long breakaway, chasing down Tejay van Garderen over the second ascent of Alpe d'Huez and holding on to win by a minute, despite crashing into a ditch on the descent of the Col de Sarenne. In doing so he became the race's first (and only) French winner of a stage that year.
