Pascal Hervé

Pascal Hervé (13 July 1964 – 24 December 2024) was a French road racing cyclist. He competed in the individual road race at the 1992 Summer Olympics and raced as a professional from 1994 to 2001. At the time of his death Pascal resided in Montreal, where he was the co-owner of a training center that helps develop local athletes and amateurs of all ages. In between seasons, he held cycling trips in various locations such as the Pyrénées, the Vosges, the Alps, and, most recently, the region of Charlevoix.

Hervé died on 24 December 2024, at the age of 60 in Montreal. The cause of his death is unknown, although he reportedly underwent surgery last September for a stomach tumour.

Doping Hervé was expelled from the 1998 Tour de France in the Festina affair.

Hervé tested positive for EPO after the prologue in 2001 Giro d'Italia.
