Philippe Gaumont (22 February 1973 – 17 May 2013)[2] was a French professional road racing cyclist.

[3] He earned a bronze medal in the 1992 Summer Olympics, 100 km team time trial.

A year later a blood test conducted in the "Docteur Mabuse" justice case showed he was positive for amphetamines.

He declared that he had repeatedly and consistently used doping products, including EPO, since the beginning of his professional career.

Gaumont gave details in his book such as how to avoid being tested positive for corticoids: how, for instance, to irritate one's testicle sac using salt in order to provoke a rash and obtain a prescription for some corticoid cream.
