Sisters' dowries
editI've removed the line "He bought his first bicycle with money handed down from his sisters' dowries.[1]".
A dowry is money that a woman pays her husband's family. So is brothers may have had dowries to hand down but the sisters would't. 66.55.209.223 (talk) 20:29, 12 June 2010 (UTC)les woodland
Death
editthis section could flow better. it starts oddly enough by mentioning the age at which he gives up cycling, and then goes on to mention a bypass operation and dying of a heart attack. after reading this section one is left with the impression that he didn't live much past 40. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.125.85.33 (talk) 20:18, 12 June 2010 (UTC)

- As documentaries etc. are made on this story, it should be mentioned that this is controversial. Included this in the article with some additional references in as neutral a way possible.. 2A02:1810:2D1B:7200:E93F:236:7C4B:4F25 (talk) 08:46, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
