Djamolidine Abdoujaparov

Firstly, my name is pronounced jah-mohl-ih-deen ahb-doo-ja-pahr-awf (just to get you straight on that)
I was one of the leading sprinters of the early 90's my main tactic was to knock my opponents off. I did this the best on the Champs-Élysées in the 1991 Tour de France
I was born and still live in Uzbekistan where I am their greatest ever sportsman. Even though I went postive they still love me.
I have a band named after me consisting of ex-Carter USM member Les Carter (AKA Fruitbat).
