About Daniel Benson
Taking you inside the world of professional cycling with exclusive interviews, breaking transfer news, race analysis and opinion-based stories laced with anecdotes from over 20 years in the sport.
If you’re looking for in-depth coverage of men’s and women’s cycling, then this is the place for you.
I’m Daniel Benson, and I’ve been writing about cycling since before power meters, marginal gains, social media, and even the internet. I’ve covered 16 editions of the Tour de France, the Olympic Games, every Spring Classic, and several World Championships. I’ve interviewed stars from Chris Froome to Lance Armstrong, Mark Cavendish to Alberto Contador, Lizzie Deignan, Annemiek van Vleuten, and Jonas Vingegaard.
From 2008 to 2022, I was the editor-in-chief at CyclingNews, then at VeloNews, and later at Global Cycling Network.
