Timeline
The classic Porto-Lisboa with about 330 km of distance, whose first edition was held in 1911, was the world longest race in one single stage, since the end of Bordeaux-Paris (560 km), in 1988.
Eduardo Lopes (1917−1997) was a Portuguese professional road and track cyclist.
Lopes was born on 22 December 1917 in the civil parish of Socorro (Lisbon).
In 1937 he began his career as a rider for the CUF team, as an amateur.
From 1937 to 1947, he had 45 wins on famous circuits at that time, including Bairrada, Mealhada, Torres Vedras, Malveira, and Round to Lisbon, with the highlight being his victory in 1942 in the classic Porto-Lisboa, performed in a single step, with an approximate duration of 10 hours, over a distance of about 330 km. This was the second longest world cycling route, after the Bordeaux-Paris (560 km) and therefore very prestigious both inside and outside Portugal.
In 1939 he became a professional.
In 1939 he took 9th place in the Final General Classification of the Tour of Portugal.
It was not his specialty or his favorite race.
A distance runner and an endurance rider, as evidenced by his victory in Porto-Lisboa, he was mainly a sprinter, winning the District and National Championships of Speed in 1941 and ranking in 2nd place in the National Championships of Speed in 1944, riding for the Iluminante team, which was the primary team he rode for during his career.
In 1941, he won the first two stages of the Tour of Portugal, riding in the team of Sport Lisboa e Benfica.
Eduardo Lopes got the time of 10 hours, 25 minutes and 12 seconds, less than about 3 hours the time of the 1941's edition winner.
In Spain, he was second in the Tour of Mallorca in 1942 and third in the 3rd stage of the Vuelta a España at Badajoz in 1945.
Although Eduardo Lopes has won several races and circuits (45 victories officially registered on UCI), his most important victory was the famous Portuguese classic race called Porto-Lisboa, in 1942.
The Oporto-Lisbon was the most important and popular race in Portugal together with the Tour of Portugal.
In 1947, he concluded his career at the Sporting Clube de Portugal, winning the 166 km Classics, the Circuit of Torres Vedras, being again District Speed Champion and taking first place in the Prologue Stage 1 of the Tour of Portugal, on the runway of Jose Alvalade Stadium.
Was together with João Lourenço, the greatest Portuguese "pistard" of the years 40/50, according to UVP-FPC.
His time "withstood" six more editions of the race and was only beaten in 1956 (14 years later) and for a few seconds.
He died on 22 August 1997 at the age of 79, of a cerebral vascular accident.
