Born in the Wirral, Steve Cummings was a track rider for Team GB from 2001-2007 before racing for top pro teams including Team Sky, BMC and MTN-Qhubeka-Dimension Data. He completed two of the most spectacular stage race victories in recent Tour de France history: at the mountain-top finish in Mende in 2015 and through the Pyrenees in 2016, as well as a stage at the Tour of Spain. He was crowned both British Time Trial and Road-Race National Champion in 2017, the first rider to 'do the double' since Tour de France star David Millar ten years earlier.
