Paris, France, 28 April 1925) is the first journalist to have followed 50 Tours de France.〔"Des Complicités Terribles, L'Équipe, France, July 2000〕 Jacques Goddet covered 53 but from 1936 to 1986 he was also the race organiser. Pierre Chany would have been the first journalist to 50 Tours de France had he not died in 1996 within weeks of the start.〔Penot, Christophe (1996), Pierre Chany, l'homme aux 50 Tours de France, Éditions Cristel, France, ISBN 2-9510116-0-1, preface〕 Augendre missed the 1947, 1952, 1954 and 1959 Tours, when he was kept in Paris to supervise other reporters' accounts. He followed his 50th Tour in 2001.〔Ride Cycling Review, Australia, spring 2001〕 ==Background== Jacques Augendre, the son of a former cyclist, raced as a boy during the German occupation of France during the second world war.
