Christian Raymond (born 24 December 1943 in Avrillé) was a French professional road bicycle racer. In 1970 Raymond won a stage in the 1970 Tour de France.Raymond’s 12-year-old daughter was the source of the nickname of the great cyclist Eddy Merckx. Raymond was a rider in the Peugeot team in 1969. When he explained to his daughter how the race had gone she said: That Belgian he doesn’t even leave you the crumbs… he’s a cannibal. The nickname stuck.
