Description

Drawing on 35 years' experience of the Tour, as well as on intimate knowledge of the participants and in-depth interviews with all of the major players, John Wilcockson vividly describes the world's most challenging sports event. Evocative of Chariots of Fire - but based on long-distance cycling rather than on the 100-metre dash - 23 Days in July will reveal the physical, psychological and strategic strengths needed to win.

Author Biography

A graduate of the University of London, John Wilcockson was the first-ever cycling correspondent of The Times, and has reported for that and the Sunday Times for many years. He has edited five different cycling magazines, and is currently the editorial director of the world's leading competitive cycling magazine, VeloNews. For his journalistic services to the Tour de France, Wilcockson was presented with the Medaille de la Reconnaissance and the Plaque de la Reconnaissance du Tour by the race's organisers. In 2004 he reported on the Tour for the 36th time. He has written a dozen books.
