Chris Boardman on giving up his car, pushing through the barriers of change and why Covid-19 may be the catalyst for reshaping Britain’s cycling identity
ChrisBoardman became the picture of British cycling in
1992, when he won the country’s first olympic cycling medal in 72
years.
Decades later, while his face is still synonymous with British
bicycles, these days it’s because he’s on crusade to make them safe
and accessible for all.
As Policy Advisor to British Cycling, Greater Manchester’s
Cycling and Walking Commissioner and the chairman of his own
bicycle brand, ChrisBoardman has dedicated his life to changing the way
we view bikes.
This week, ChrisBoardman speaks to Krishnan about giving up his car,
pushing through the barriers of change and why Covid-19 may be the
catalyst for reshaping Britain’s cycling identity.
