Michael Hutchinson
Michael Hutchinson is a writer, journalist, and former professional cyclist. As a rider, he won multiple national titles in both Britain and Ireland and competed at the World Championships and the Commonwealth Games. He was a three-time Brompton folding-bike World Champion and once hit 73mph riding down a hill in Wales.
As a writer, he authored the award-winning The Hour, detailing his attempt at the sport’s most famous and sought-after record. He followed this with Faster, exploring the training, science, genetics, and luck behind the world’s fastest riders, and Re:Cyclists, a history of cyclists from 1816 to the present day.
He is a columnist for Cycling Weekly magazine, and his writing has appeared in the Guardian, the Observer, Financial Times, The New York Times, and The New York Review of Books. He has presented cycling TV and radio shows for the BBC and other outlets, and has appeared as a pundit and commentator for Eurosport, the BBC, Channel 4, and Sky Sports.
Before embarking on his writing and broadcasting career, he was a legal academic at Cambridge and Sussex universities. He now lives with far too many bicycles in London and Cambridgeshire.
