Thomas Allier, FRA

He took up the sport in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1999. (Athlete, 27 May 2011)

"We used to live in a farm, and it was over there that I learned how to ride a bike. My challenge was to go around the house without setting the foot on the ground. Without knowing about BMX, I made my first ramp. A few years later, we moved to another city, Pocos de Caldas, and on a walk in a park with a BMX track, I fell in love with BMX." (YouTube channel, 03 Jan 2021)

To win a medal at the Olympic Games. (cob.org.br, 01 Jul 2016)

He was named the Best BMX Athlete by the Brazilian Olympic Committee in 2009, 2011, 2013, 2014 and 2015. (mtbbrasilia.com.br, 15 Dec 2015; rio2016.com, 16 Dec 2014)

He says he was disappointed with his appearances at the Olympic Games in 2012 and 2016 after he got flat tires at both Games. "I think about the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo and the past two Olympic Games come to mind. They were not cool for me. It is really nice for an athlete to compete at the Olympic Games, but what we want is to reach the final, win a medal. I had a flat tire at both of them. In Tokyo it may be different. I have [Brazilian artistic gymnast] Diego Hypolito as an inspiration. He said that he fell on his butt, fell on his face, but then stood up. I believe it might be different [to the last two Games]. I hope I can get to Tokyo as prepared as possible." (globoesporte.globo.com, 06 Oct 2020)
