Cyrille Van Hauwaert (16 December 1883 â 15 February 1974) was a Belgian professional road bicycle racer, known for winning classics as BordeauxâÂÂParis (1907 and 1909), MilanâÂÂSan Remo and ParisâÂÂRoubaix (both 1908). He was the first Belgian cyclist to win a stage in the Tour de France in 1909, also leading the general classification for one day.
In 1908, prior to winning MilanâÂÂSan Remo, Van Hauwaert had traveled by bike from Belgium to the start in Milan, by means of training.
