Samuel Dumoulin (born 20 August 1980) is a French former professional road bicycle racer, who rode professionally between 2002 and 2019 for the Jean Delatour, Cofidis and AG2R La Mondiale teams.[1][2][3] He now works as a directeur sportif for UCI ProTeam B&B Hotels p/b KTM.[4]

Career[edit]

Dumoulin rode as an amateur for the TCCT[5] (Tonic cyclo club of Ternay). He won the national youth championship in 1996, then the espoir (young professional) Paris–Tours and Paris-Auxerre in 2001.

He dropped out of the 2004 Tour de France when he crashed after hitting a dog. Recovery took him four months and he did not race for the rest of the season. In 2008 he won the third stage after a breakaway of nearly 200 kilometres (120 miles), beating Will Frischkorn and Romain Feillu.
