Legend: Philippe Gilbert

Overview

When Philippe Gilbert completed a clean sweep of the Ardennes one day classics in 2011, he wrote himself into the history books as just the second man, and first Belgian, to achieve the feat. Now, the King of the Ardennes is the King of the Côte d’Azur, and Dan Lloyd is heading out to Monaco to meet him. Gilbert was one of the great entertainers, mixing raw power and ability with a panache and attacking instinct that thrilled fans and proved an inspiration to a whole generation of cyclists. As Dan spends time with Gilbert at his bike shop and in the hills around his adopted home, Dan gets the inside story from Gilbert’s victories in four of pro cycling’s five monuments, and a world championship; a record unmatched in the modern era.
