Pez Cyclingnews, Edmond Hood, 4 December 2019
Posted by: Bitossi

It seems like Steve Cummings has been in the pro peloton for ever, but just a couple of weeks ago he announced he would be hanging up his race bike. A bad crash in the Tour of Britain brought a disappointing end to a successful career. Ed Hood caught up with Cummings while he is still recovering and looking forward to the future and back at the highs and lows of his years in the saddle.

I’ve told it before but it’s worth telling again; my favourite Steve Cummings story - it’s the one where he’s in a Tour of Britain breakaway with Dan Fleeman; ‘the only reason I went through was to get a rest, it was easier out in the wind than it was on his wheel!’ our Dan told us.

Il n’était certainement pas le plus attendu pour le classement général, mais lui-même ne semble pas si surpris. Hier, après sa victoire au chrono’ de Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, son directeur sportif chez BMC, Yvon Ledanois, affichait déjà une mine confiante en affirmant que son coureur avait le potentiel pour gagner et une forte équipe pour le soutenir. Stephen Cummings n’aura donc pas déçu en ne concédant que 11’’ au vainqueur, Jean-Christophe Péraud, il parvient à s’assurer de la tunique jaune pour quatre petites secondes. Mais peu importe l’écart, la victoire est là et le compteur de succès du Britannique de 32 ans passe de six à huit en deux jours…
