Biography

Charles Rampelberg, who lived in Paris, never won a national title, but he was in Australia when World War II broke out, where he was competing as a professional. After a cycling injury, he had to give up his sports career. Although he had worked in France as an engineer, he opened a delicatessen in Australia, and did very well. Rampelberg later returned to Paris and worked as a marketing representative for his brother Émile, who was running a studio as a graphic designer for the textile industry.
