René de Latour : ウィキペディア英語版 | René de Latour René de Latour (born New York, USA, 30 September 1906, died Quiberon, France, 4 September 1986) was a Franco-American sports journalist, race director of the Tour de l'Avenir cycle race, and correspondent of the British magazine, ''Sporting Cyclist'', to which he contributed to 120 of the 131 issues. ==Background== René de Latour was born in 42nd Street, New York. His father was French, born in Lyon, and his mother Belgian, from Verviers. The family returned to France at the start of World War I, when de Latour was eight. He never lost a slight American accent when he spoke English. The war was an exciting time for a young boy and de Latour made the most of that and his freedom. In 1917 he met American soldiers in Paris and became their interpreter and guide. He took them to the Folies Bergère when he was 11.〔Woodland, Les (2003), Yellow Jersey Guide to the Tour de France, Yellow Jersey, UK ISBN 978-0-224-08016-3 p113〕 His American links gave him an interest in baseball but it was cycling that filled his life.
