Overview

Real life as a rider in the professional peloton, revealing the side of the sport that only an anonymous cyclist can tell. 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?

The Secret Cyclist tackles the big questions head-on, revealing a side to cycling that fans have never seen before.
