## Resource

Pippa York, once Robert Millar, unveils her raw, powerful memoir “The Escape,” weaving together her legendary Tour de France triumphs, her transgender journey, and the gritty reality of cycling’s doping era. She confronts the duality of her identity—glory on the bike, struggle off it—and reveals how ambition turned her into a “willing victim” of a corrupt system. Reflecting on her era’s moral compromises, she contrasts it with today’s naturally gifted champions like Pogacar. With honesty and heart, she also speaks to young trans people, lamenting missed opportunities for early medical support, while standing firm in her identity.
