My Take

David Millar is the kind of athlete whose story matters as much as his palmares, and that palmares is no joke: stage wins across all three Grand Tours and national road and time-trial titles. But what draws me in is the second act. A rider who knew both the heights and the hard falls of professional cycling later turned to writing and earned a literary award for it. There is a particular honesty in someone who has been humbled choosing to narrate his own life. I tend to trust the storytelling of people who have actually been tested, and his clearly was.

Overview

David Millar (born 4 January 1977) is a Scottish retired professional road racing cyclist. He rode for Cofidis from 1997 to 2004 and Garmin–Sharp from 2008 to 2014. He has won four stages of the Tour de France, five of the Vuelta a España and one stage of the Giro d'Italia. He was the British national road champion and the national time trial champion, both in 2007.
