Blazing Saddles by Matt Rendell
From Lance Armstrong's comeback from cancer, to Tom Simpson's death on the slopes of Mont Ventoux, the Tour de France has been the stage for some of sport's most monumental triumphs and the scene of some of its darkest hours. This book looks at the rivalries, characters and controversies that have given century-old race its unique colour.
