Until a real expert gets here you will have to make do with me:)

The numbering suggests a team bike but I can’t find an AW or a WA on the team in 1991.

It might have been the bike of a stagiere. This could explain the lack of a rider’s name on the frame.

It could be worth looking to see if there was a rider of those initials riding for Antony-Berny Cycliste (ABC) which was the feeder team for Castorama, Durand, Ledanois, and Thueux all rode for ABC.

Good luck I hope you find an answer!
 
Thanks DSH , yeah it’s seems to be a tricky one to uncover , I’ve also checked the 91 team but had no joy as yet .
I’ll look into (ABC) also .
Thanks for you help / input 👍
