En rejse gennem cykelsportens største løb, dens historier og personligheder. Professionel cykling er lige så ond, løgnagtig, smuk og sand som livet selv, og derfor er den vores kærlighed værd. Den er meget mere end "bare sport". Den handler om historie, kultur, skæbner, kunst, national identitet og mytologier. Bogen fortæller en lang række historier om cykelsportens liv i ord og tegninger. Fra Bolognas hvælvede gader, gennem små bjerglandsbyer og over de mest legendariske bjergpas hele vejen til sæsonens afslutning ved Como-søen.

Max Radlers alltägliche wahre Erlebnisse im Straßenverkehr und auf Radreisen mit einem Augenzwinkern beschrieben. Der tägliche Kampf als Radfahrer, im Straßenverkehr zu bestehen. Von "schatzsuchenden" Radlern, Radtechnik und Stürzen. Wenn einer eine Radreise tut, dann kann er was erzählen.

Il giorno prima, l'attesa lieve, agitatissima: cosa accadrà? E poi è il giorno. Lo stadio è una muraglia di colori, di cori, di rumori. Ai lati del percorso gli appassionati di ciclismo si accalcano, attendono, scalpitano sui sandali. Sfilano i campioni in campo. I panchinari. Gli arbitri. Il quarto uomo. Sfilano i campioni sulla strada. I gregari. I fotografi. I suiveurs e i giornalisti. Il durante e il dopo. L'attesa, la tensione, la rassegnazione, la gioia. L'euforia. La poesia. Questo è un audiolibro di sport, di calcio e di ciclismo. Di poesia.

Damiano Cunego, vincitore del Giro d'Italia 2004, si racconta nella sua prima autobiografia. Dal ricordo di un'infanzia felice passata sui monti veronesi - tra auto veloci, hockey su ghiaccio e corsa campestre - allo sbarco nel ciclismo che conta. Aneddoti, curiosità e foto dell'ex enfant prodige che avrebbe dovuto raccogliere l'eredità del più grande, Marco Pantani. Soprannominato Il Piccolo Principe, per il suo animo gentile e puro, Cunego ha avuto la sola colpa di voler correre onestamente.

Absprachen, Lügen und kuriose Methoden: so kam es zu den Skandalen im Rennradsport. Blutdoping, verbotene Leistungssteigerungen und geheime Abmachungen für den Sieg des Team-Favoriten - ab den 1990er-Jahren taumelte der Radsport und mit ihm die Tour de France von einem Skandal zum nächsten. Vom Glanz des gelben Trikots blieb in jenen Tagen nicht mehr viel. Wie organisiert lief das Doping in der TdF ab, wer war beteiligt und wie konnten berühmte Dopingfälle so lange unbemerkt bleiben?

The new memoir tracing story of cycling since the 1980s, through the eyes of Jonathan Vaughters, founder of team Education First and one of the sport's most towering figures. Jonathan Vaughters' story is the story of modern cycling. From his early years as a keen cyclist in his hometown in...

By his 18th birthday David Millar was living and racing in France, sleeping in rented rooms, tipped to be the next English-speaking Tour winner. A year later he'd realised the dream and signed a professional contract. He perhaps lived the high life a little too enthusiastically - he broke his heel in a fall from a roof after too much drink and before long the pressure to succeed had tipped over into doping.

For years Geraint Thomas appeared blessed with extraordinary talent but jinxed at the greatest bike race in the world: twice an Olympic gold medallist on the track, Commonwealth champion, yet at the Tour de France a victim of crashes, bad luck and his willingness to sacrifice himself for his teammates. In the summer of 2018, that curse was blown away in spectacular fashion - from the cobbles of the north and the iconic mountain climbs of the Alps to the brutal slopes of the Pyrenees and, finally, the Champs-Elysees in Paris. 

In One-Way Ticket: Nine Lives and Two Wheels he describes a journey from driven teenage prodigy, travelling to races in the back of his dad's station wagon, to an obsessive determination to make it big in European racing - whatever the cost. He tells the story of his transformation from poacher to gamekeeper, detailing his painful decision to finally come clean about his own descent into doping - and to persuade others to do likewise - by providing more than enough shocking testimony to USADA (US Anti-Doping Agency) to explode the Armstrong myth.

Dan Bigham is the captain of an amateur British track cycling team who rose from obscurity to beat professional multi-million-pound teams at the highest level. Alongside hard work and dedication, Dan credits his success to one thing: reverse-engineering the result. Dan uses his own story as well as wider examples and case studies from the worlds of business, personal development and other sports to demonstrate how this approach can help you succeed in any walk of life.

This is the story of Barbara and Larry Savage's sometimes dangerous, often zany, but ultimately rewarding 23,000-mile global bicycle odyssey, which took them through 25 countries in two years. Miles from Nowhere is an adventure not to be missed! Along the way, these near-neophyte cyclists encountered warmhearted strangers eager to share food and shelter, bicycle-hating drivers who shoved them off the road, various wild animals, rock-throwing Egyptians, overprotective Thai policeman, motherly New Zealanders, meteorological disasters, bodily indignities, and great personal joys.

Recently recovered from his epic bicycle journey that took him from the Delaware shore to the Oregon coast, distinguished climate scientist David Goodrich sets out on his bike again to traverse the Western Interior Seaway - an ancient ocean that once spread across half of North America. When the waters cleared a geologic age ago, what was left behind was vast flat prairie, otherworldly rock formations, and oil shale deposits. 

Once a superstar in the world of cycling and one of its most interesting personalities, Lance Armstrong is known for pushing his body to the extreme, intimidating his rivals, and breaking the rules. Armstrong's many achievements were consistently dogged by allegations of doping and secrecy, allegations to which the cyclist ultimately acknowledged. Lance takes a long, hard, objective look at Armstrong's life—before his admission of guilt—both on and off the bike, beginning with his humble origins and his single mom's struggle for survival.

For a race as long as the mighty Tour (three weeks of testing the limits of human endurance), to have the ultimate victory decided by a margin of just eight seconds almost boggles the mind. But that's exactly what happened between American legend Greg LeMond and Laurent Fignon. After more than 2,000 miles in the saddle, it remains the smallest margin of victory in the Tour's 100-plus-year history.

Cycling fans obsess about climbs and big mountains. They love reading about their tests and tribulations and they love to ride them - a cricket lover can never bat at Lord's, or a football supporter score at Wembley, but any rider can take on the challenge of an iconic mountain. There have been...

Based on a true story The Invisible Mile tells the poignant story of five Australian and New Zealand cyclists who in 1928 formed the first English-speaking team to ride in the Tour de France. They were gallant, under-resourced and badly outnumbered but taken deep to the heart by the French...

From its inception, the 1903 Tour de France was a colorful affair. Full of adventure, mishaps and audacious attempts at cheating, it was a race to be remembered. Cyclists of the time weren't enthusiastic about participating in this "heroic" race on roads more suited to hooves than wheels, with...

Julian Berrendero's victory in the 1941 Vuelta a Espana was an extraordinary exercise in sporting redemption: the Spanish cyclist had just spent 18 months in Franco's concentration camps, punishment for expressing Republican sympathies during the civil war. Seventy-nine years later, perennially over-ambitious cyclo-adventurer Tim Moore developed a fascination with Berrendero's story, and having borrowed an old road bike with the great man's name plastered all over it, set off to retrace the 4,409-km route of his 1941 triumph - in the midst of a global pandemic.

On 15 February 2008, Mark Beaumont pedalled through the Arc de Triomphe in Paris. 194 days and 17 hours previously, he had begun his attempt to circumnavigate the world in record time. Mark smashed the Guinness World Record by an astonishing 81 days. He had travelled more than 18,000 miles on his own through some of the harshest conditions one man and his bicycle can endure, camping wild at night and suffering from constant ailments.
