I talk to two kinds of room: people who want to go faster, and people who want to know how you keep going when you’ve been told you can’t. Sometimes the same room. I’ve spent a career at the sharp end of elite sport and a lifetime as the only elite athlete with severe haemophilia means I can hold both a corporate stage, commentating a stage and a hosting a clinical symposium.

When racing is on I can often be the one explaining it. I commentate and provide punditry on cycling for the BBC and ITV, breaking down tactics, technology and the human stories live as the race unfolds.

"There are very few people who can speak about haemophilia with both clinical fluency and lived experience at the highest level of sport. Alex held a room of physicians for an hour and the feedback was the strongest we've had."

Medical Affairs Director, Global Pharmaceutical Company

"Plenty of ex-pros know the sport. Very few can make a first-time viewer understand it without patronising the fans who've watched for thirty years. Alex does both in the same sentence."

Head of Production in relation to Cycling Broadcast Coverage

"The prepared talk was excellent but the Q&A was where he really came alive. Honest, funny, and generous with the detail. Guests were still talking about it at dinner."
