At All That Matters: An Evening With Sir Chris Hoy, you will hear all about the life of an achiever, an achiever who conquered the world of cycling and won an AMAZING 6 Olympic gold medals.
Since being inspired to cycle at age six by the 1982 film E.T all the way up to retirement in 2013 Sir Chris has won and beaten all before him.
He started racing BMX at age seven and later transitioned to track cycling representing Great Britain at the Olympic and World Championships and Scotland at the Commonwealth Games.
He won his first Olympic gold medal in the kilometre time trial at the 2004 Athens Olympics and later became the first British male athlete to win three gold medals in a single Olympic Games at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. He retired from competitive cycling in 2013 with an amazing total of six Olympic gold medals and one silver.
Since retiring Sir Chris pursued a career in motorsport and became a successful racing driver, he has authored several best selling books and is a leading motivational speaker.
Of course, we cannot give you any story of Sir Chris without sadly mentioning recent events. Diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer in September 2023 Sir Chris announced his condition was terminal in October 2024.
