Episode description

British cycling took the world by storm in 2008, culminating in the most dominant display ever seen at an Olympic games. Sir Chris Hoy was at the front of that, winning an incredible three gold medals at Beijing 2008. But he'd had to learn three different events from when he medalled in Athens. He explains what made him, and the team, so dominant and what it was like to become the biggest name in British track cycling. Sponsored by Bose.
