Great Britain Olympic track champion Sir Chris Hoy will write a series of children's cycling story books, due to be launched in March 2016.

Hoy will co-author the Flying Fergus book series aimed at five to eight year olds with Joanna Nadin, who wrote the Rachel Riley books. According to publisher Hot Key Books, the stories follow the exploits of central character Fergus as he discovers his dad's rusty old bike has "more to it than meets the eye".

Nigel Wynn
Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
