Shaun Wallace (born 20 November 1961) is a British former professional cyclist who competed in two Olympic[1] and three Commonwealth Games[2] and rode for multiple American-based teams.

[3] Twelve years later he won another silver medal in the individual pursuit at the 1994 Commonwealth Games in Victoria, British Columbia in Canada and followed this up four years later by winning a further silver medal in the scratch race, at the 1998 Commonwealth Games in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

[4] After successes in his native Great Britain in track cycling, including winning British Championships over distances of 1 km, 4 km and 20 km, Wallace moved to the USA where he continued his career as an amateur, and from 1986 onward as a Professional Cyclist for a variety of teams and sponsors:[5] In 2003 Wallace was one of the inaugural inductees into the Hall of Fame at the Lehigh Valley Velodrome in Pennsylvania, where he had based from during most of his cycling career.

[7] More recently (2017 and previous years), Wallace has coached at the San Diego Velodrome.

[citation needed] Throughout his cycling career Wallace made significant use of altitude training to optimize his performance, first with trips to Colorado Springs, and later went on to be a pioneer in the application of the "Live High - Train Low" method by renting a cabin to sleep at Woodland Park CO (8465'), driving down to train on the Colorado Springs Velodrome (6035'), then driving up Pikes Peak (14,114') for an afternoon rest, and training in the evening whist breathing oxygen-enhanced air to simulate sea level (0').
