RIP POU POU

[Fairweather]

Poulidor, the eternal second

[Wipperman_95]

Worth reading about Anquetil too, they were different and complimentary, I admire Poulidor
I guess most British people have heard of Bobby Charlton, is that a good parallel?

The Guardian obituary of Poulidor is worth reading. Both his grandsons are professional cyclists

Yes, both are professionals. And the youngest one is probably the most talented 'all round' cyclist of his generation. CX, MTB & Road, and world class in all disciplines.
