Description

‘The true inspiration was that Olympic gold won by Chris Boardman in
Barcelona… I was so in awe of Chris Boardman’ Sir Bradley Wiggins You may
know him as the much-loved co-presenter of ITV’s Tour de France coverage or
enjoyed his BBC Olympic coverage, but beyond the easy charm Chris Boardman
is one of our greatest, most inspiring cyclists. Boardman’s lone
achievements in the 80s and 90s – Olympic track gold, the world hour
record, repeatedly claiming the yellow jersey in the Tour de France – were
the spark that started the modern era for British cycling. His endeavours
both on and off the bike have made him the founding father of current
golden generation – without him there would simply be no Hoy, Wiggins or
Cavendish. It is a story full of intrigue: from Olympic success, to the
famous duels with Graeme Obree and the insanity of the Tour de France.
Chris became a legend for his combination of physical ability and technical
preparation, almost single-handedly taking British cycling from wool shirts
and cloth caps into the era of marginal gains. Indeed, after his career on
the bike ended, a new chapter began as the backroom genius behind GB
cycling. As head of the R&D team known as The Secret Squirrel Club, Chris
has been responsible for the technical innovations that made the difference
in 2012 and developed Boardman Bikes, which has become the country's
bestselling premium bike range.
