Who is Steve Peat

 

[Anthony]

Before the mods move this, I wonder whether anyone has recollections of Steve Peat riding in retro times. He's certainly a retro rider, even if he wasn't riding a retro bike!

i used to race against him in the early days at the NEMBA's and BMBF's , usually leaving me for dust . he was a bloody good XC rider before he shot to stardom in Downhill and has been at head of the pack ever since . he has the all time record of world cup wins which is 18 i think ? and i think iv'e seen that he's recognised as britain's most succesful cyclist .
Not bad ! good on ya Peaty
