Dan Frost (born 22 May 1961 in Frederiksberg, Hovedstaden) is a retired male track cyclist from Denmark, who won the gold medal for his native country in the men's points race at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, South Korea.[1] His other major victories include the world title in the same event in 1986 (Colorado Springs). He is the brother of cyclist Ken Frost. After retiring from racing, he worked in management for Bjarne Riis's Team CSC for nine seasons before joining Team Sky as a directeur sportif for 2014. Eventually, he left competitive cycling to organise bike trips and work with the Amaury Sport Organisation, the organisers of the Tour de France.[2]
