Sport scientists featured on ITV ahead of a major University-organised cycling conference.
Kent sport scientist Professor Louis Passfield demonstrated the science behind elite Tour de France cyclists for an ITV Meridian feature, which was first broadcast on 1 July.
The feature was in advance of the University-organised 2014 World Congress of Cycling Science (WCCS) in Leeds 2-3 July.
Endorsed by the Union Cycliste International (UCI) and featuring several very special guests from the sport, WCCS focused on the science behind elite cycling performance, with a particular focus on the Tour, which started in Leeds on 5 July.
It also ran a school and public engagement events.
WCCS was sponsored by the University of Kent, Biotechnology and Biosciences Research Council (BBSRC), British Cycling, PowerBar, Mapei Sport, UCI, Human Kinetics, Training Peaks, Cranlea Human Performance, SRM, HaB Direct, Cyclus 2 and Power Breathe.
