David Tedman is a renowned and highly successful landscape and industrial landscape photographer. His career began during the transformation of London Docklands, leading on to working with many of London’s leading design and advertising agencies.

A lifelong cyclist and passionate fan, David was once the youngest member of the Great Britain Olympic cycling training squad. Like countless other young riders, he dreamed of conquering the great mountain passes of Europe and winning the Tour de France.

Today, those same legendary roads and mountains are the canvas for his photography. Combining an understanding of cycling together, with a photographer's eye for light, landscape, and atmosphere, David creates distinctive fine art images that celebrate the beauty, drama, and heritage of Europe's most iconic cycling climbs.

The original intention of this collection of pictures was to put to rest the ghost of that cherished unfulfilled dream. In reality, it’s become so much more than that. Somewhere along the way, the regrets of the past have transformed the present and turned the future into a bright and exciting reason to live.

These mountains can do that for you.

The soundtrack to the first two major sections of the Great Cycling Climbs belongs almost exclusively to London Grammar. A mix of spirituality and the wonderful cinematic quality needed to traverse these crazy mountain roads.
