[edit] Amateur career
Dumoulin rode as an amateur for the TCCT[1] (Tonic cyclo club of Ternay). He won the national youth championship in 1996, then the éspoir (young professional) Paris–Tours and Paris-Auxerre in 2001. He turned professional in 2002 for Jean Delatour. At the end of 2003 he moved to AG2R Prévoyance and he now rides for Cofidis, having joined the team in 2008.
He dropped out of the 2004 Tour de France when he crashed after hitting a dog. Recovery took him four months and he did not race for the rest of the season. In 2008 he won the third stage after a breakaway of nearly 200 km, beating William Frischkorn and Romain Feillu.
