Automoto was a French professional cycling team that existed from 1910 to 1952.[1] Its main sponsor was French bicycle and motorcycle manufacturer Automoto.[2] The Automoto cycling team rose to its fullest prominence in the peloton after World War One. Its riders dominated professional cycling's premier event, the Tour de France, from 1923-1926 with a series of convincing victories captained by riders with international appeal like Henri Pellisier (France), Ottavio Bottecchia (Italy) and Lucien Buysse (Belgium).[3]
