Goldor was a Belgian professional cycling team that existed from 1965 to 1973.[2] The team underwent name changes for every year of its existence.[3] The team competed in four editions of the Vuelta a España, taking two stage wins in both the 1969 and 1971 editions. Other notable victories include the 1967 Omloop Het Volk and 1969 Gent–Wevelgem by Willy Vekemans and the 1972 E3 Prijs Vlaanderen by Hubert Hutsebaut.[4]
After folding in 1973, the squad was succeeded by the IJsboerke team, which formed the following year.
