The drama, camaraderie, scenery, history and sheer craziness of the world's biggest individually-timed cycling event. "The Cycle Tour" has become a global sporting phenomenon. From humble beginnings thirty years ago, it has grown into a landmark event around the spectacular Cape Peninsula that attracts a sell-out field of 35 000 riders every year and is the biggest of its kind anywhere in the world. This book tells the story of the pros, the amateurs and the jokers who make up the pack as well as the organisers and the remarkable volunteers who make the event tick. Above all, it captures, in stunning photography, the intense emotions of riding 109km through some of the most beautiful scenery in the world.
