A Quote by Marianne Vos

There can be crowd issues everywhere in cycling. But it's a good thing for cycling that it's so accessible for spectators. That's why it's so popular - because fans can get close to the road and the race. But you also have to be aware of the dangers.

The growth of cycling is a good thing. But good cycling is responsible cycling.

Chris Grayling

I've always been a keen cyclist, I'm very close to the world of cycling. Not just cycling really - also walking, adventures, being a curious person, traveling to new countries.

Paul Smith

Cycling is a sport of the open road and spectators are lining that road.

Lance Armstrong

Cycling is an activity which more and more young people are getting involved with, whether they are using their bikes to get to school or work, socially, or cycling as a sport. Cycling is cheap, it's quick, and it makes you look and feel great!

Adrian Bell

I think when I first started cycling, it wasn't that popular with kids. I felt almost embarrassed going down the road on my road bike; I didn't want my friends to see me because it was embarrassing.

Laura Trott

I would like to propose slow cycling. Commute by bike. At a stroke, you remove the need for and absurd cost of public transport. Cycling is almost completely free. There is no longer any need for the gym as you get fit by cycling. And you can go at your own pace.

Tom Hodgkinson

Track and road cycling are very different things. It is easy to look at them both as cycling but going from the road to the track is like asking Andy Murray to play squash: yes, it's a racket sport like tennis, but it's not the same.

Mark Cavendish

Cycling is low-impact, which is why people cycle into their 70s or 80s, but track cycling means hard gym work and crashes.

Chris Hoy

I started my cycling academy to try and get more people from a BAME background into cycling.

Kadeena Cox

It seems everyday I find a new road, a new person that can help my cycling better and help me understand more things. I compare cycling to life often.

Robin Farina

The beautiful thing about cycling is that it is so accessible and that pleased me when I was younger because you felt like you could almost touch the athletes.

Mark Cavendish

I want to tell the world of cycling to please join me in telling Pat McQuaid to resign. I have never seen such an abuse of power in cycling's history - resign, Pat, if you love cycling. Resign even if you hate the sport.

Greg LeMond

Usually, the great thing about cycling is that anybody can watch it; it's very accessible.

Bradley Wiggins

I think USA Cycling really needs to ride this wave and start looking at growing the sport. It's a tough one because cycling is such an endurance sport.

Kristin Armstrong

The UCI have to make the decision to put in rules into women's cycling that they have in men's cycling: you know, like a minimum budget to run a women's team and that sort of thing so that it becomes more professional.
