Robert Millar (born 13 September 1958) is a former Scottish professional cyclist who won the “King of the Mountains” competition in the 1984 Tour de France and finished fourth overall – the highest Tour position for a British cyclist, and the first time a Briton had won a major Tour classification. He also achieved the highest finish by a Briton in the Giro d'Italia, finishing second in the 1987 event and winning the King of the Mountains classification too. He was a vegetarian. Millar remains the only rider from an English speaking country to have won the Tour De France King of the Mountains title. He is not related to fellow Scot David Millar. (wikipedia)
