An aficionado of the sport, Wiggins joins us to talk about his own cycling heroes and his new book, Icons, which showcases his collection of cycling memorabilia; each piece reflects an icon, a race or a moment that influenced him on a personal and professional level. He explores the lives and achievements of 21 of the sport’s key figures and sheds new light on what professional cycling demands of its top competitors. A rare opportunity to hear about this remarkable sport from a man uniquely placed to reflect on its history and its unforgettable titans.
