Marcel Kint

His finest year was 1938 when he won the World Cycling Championship, three stages of the Tour de France and the season-long competition equivalent to today's UCI ProTour.[2] He specialized in one-day classic cycle races and won Paris–Roubaix, Gent–Wevelgem, Paris–Brussels.[3] Kints honours would have been much bigger but at his sporting peak, his career was halted for a few years by World War II.The outbreak of the war would make Marcel Kint the longest reigning world champion in the history of cycling.In the final of the 1946 world championship in Zurich, Kint and Swiss rider Hans Knecht were riding to the finish, when Kint was stopped by fanatical home supporters, causing him to finish second.
