An eye opening way of achieving success, with limited resources but limitless curiosity. The story of Dan Bigham and his world-beating HUUB-Wattbike track cycling team mates shows how knowledge beats talent and how even successful systems can be challenged and disrupted by original thinking.
Dan Bigham is a world-class track and road cyclist who has built his own path to success. After studying motorsport engineering at university, working in F1 for Mercedes AMG Petronas and Olympic sport for British Athletics, Dan took the leap to create and race for his own track cycling team.
HUUB Wattbike have gone on to monumental success; winning multiple world cups, breaking world records, and medalling at world championships & Commonwealth Games on both the track and road. All without the assistance of their own nation; an often contentious relationship.
Dan now rides for INEOS Grenadiers in addition to his role there as Performance Engineer and represents Team GB internationally.
START AT THE END is Dan’s first first book.
Dan's knowledge and first-hand experience have also attracted top level road teams and national governing bodies. He has masterminded Canyon SRAM's Team Time Trial World Championship win in 2018 and is the brains behind Denmark's Gold medal and triple world record streak at the 2019 UCI Track Cycling World Championships.
Dan specialises in reverse engineering practical solutions to enable athletes to perform at the highest level. He brings in ideas from other fields and sports, constantly innovating and pushing the boundaries of the sport and the established status quo.
