Gilbert Glaus
Switzerland's Cycling Icon
Gilbert Glaus, Switzerland's celebrated cycling icon:
-
One of the greatest sprinters in the world in the 1970s and 1980s, the only Swiss to win the final stage of the Tour de France on the Champs-Élysées in Paris, international cycling champion and former world champion.
Gilbert Glaus, a great athlete and as a person: a person who achieved phenomenal things and remained humble and down-to-earth despite his historic success. Glaus Cycling is a tribute from me as his firstborn to him as my father and to him as an athlete and his unique success story and legendary performance.
My father's touching and inspiring story of how, as a 9-year-old boy in a small village in Switzerland in the 1960s, he fought to realize his life's vision of making a living as a professional cyclist. - And despite all the adversities and difficulties, you managed to do it on your own, you can read and experience it in detail in the book.
