Gitane Frigecreme Cycling Team (France) - 1972-73

Bikes were Gitane and Frigecreme were ice cream (both French).

French to the core but the only results came via the non French riders in Joop Zoetemelk (at the 1973 Tour de France) and Michael Wright (UK born but lived all his life in France). Results were few & far between except for Joop and the team became Sonolor Gitane in 1974.
