To Hell on a Bike by Iain Macgregor
Tour de France winners (with the notable exception of Wiggins in 2014) make their excuses from it. So why on earth would an amateur even dare to attempt it? This book explores the history and culture of this race.
"I have been acquainted with MrMacGregor for many years and know him to be of unsound mind. When he said he was tackling the 'Hell of the North', I should have guessed that didn't mean going home for Christmas." Tim Moore, author of French Revolutions and Gironimo! "Evocative and very enjoyable. Highly recommend it." Peter Cossins, author of The Monuments "MacGregor's is a genuinely inspirational story which blends details of his preparation with the race's history and his take on why it continues to attract the greats." Birmingham Post "A highly entertaining read, well written, well paced and guaranteed to bring your enthusiasm for cobbles to the boil." Washing Machine Post
