Just read this, he was a bit of a mascot for the annual l'Ardechois event near me, he last entered it in 2018, aged 107: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZQU7fUpH-U
He only stopped cycling at 108 years old.
Robert Marchand, the French cyclist who did an age category hour record for the over 100s, has died, aged 109.
