Let's make this birthday one to remember.

56 years old (Born on August 26, 1968)

Happy Birthday, Chris Boardman! From your Olympic gold medal in Barcelona '92 to setting world records faster than most of us can fix a puncture, you've always been ahead of the pack. Your legendary rides have inspired countless cyclists—and made the rest of us feel guilty about taking the car.

Even today, your passion for cycling continues to shine brighter than a freshly polished Olympic medal. Whether it's advocating safer roads or sharing expert insights on TV, you remain an unstoppable force on two wheels (and occasionally behind a microphone). Here's wishing you another year filled with smooth roads and tailwinds!
