Nicolas Vogondy

In 2002 he became national champion of France when he outsprinted Nicolas Jalabert and Patrice Halgand.

He won the overall rankings of the Boucles de la Mayenne in 2007, after winning the second stage earlier.

Vogondy stayed ahead of the pack until about 70 meters before the finish, when he was passed by top sprinters like Mark Cavendish, who won the stage.

Early in the 2010 season, Vogondy was refused a licence to race by the French cycling federation because a medical examination revealed cardiac arrhythmia problems.
