4 - French championship winner jersey

Raymond Poulidor was a very popular rider with the French public, both during and after his cycling career. Often presented as the eternal runner-up, he never won the Tour de France, nor even wore the yellow jersey in 15 participations. He did, however, win 7 stages and 8 podiums. In 1961, he won Milan/San Remo and took the French champion's jersey. He met Louis Nicollin on several occasions.
