Anyone read it? I’ve got a copy lined up for my summer holiday read.

I’ve read all of his other books so I have high hopes for it.

Got a good review in the CTC magazine, on my "to buy" list as a result.

Halfway through it at the moment. Some laugh out loud bits. Finding it harder to associate with the 1914 Giro rather than the TDF book because I don't know about the riders but i'm really enjoying it so far...

I actually preferred it to French Revolutions. Both excellent and well worth £3.50 for the Kindle edition.

I'm sure it was covered on Radio 4, only 15 minutes abridged snippets but worth listening to if it's still on iPlayer.

Quite a pleasant read, think I prefer French revolutions but still well worth the money

Read it on Kindle, he'd fit in well here...
