Who is The Secret Cyclist and why all the secrecy? "Every public
aspect of our lives is so tightly controlled that being truly
honest is all but impossible in a newspaper interview, never mind a
whole book. You try write a warts-and-all blog about your office.
Question how the business is run, make sure you remember to call
your boss a moron, and then tell me how it goes." He's ridden for
World Tour teams for ten years. He's achieved top ten finishes in
Grand Tours. He likes coffee. These are just a few details about
the professional rider who wants you to know what the view looks
like from the centre of the peloton. What do the riders really make
of Team Sky? How does the pay structure work? Why should you never
trust a kit endorsement from a professional? Is doping still an
issue? The Secret Cyclist tackles the big questions head-on,
revealing a side to cycling that fans have never seen before.
