Sprinters and the Art of Speed invites you into the world of professional cycling through the eyes of some of the best sprinters of all time.
From the earliest days of road racing there have been explosive riders that always seemed to have the edge over their rivals at the finish. From the days of Charles PĂ©lissier and Rik van Looy, to the epic era of Mark Cavendish and the rise of new stars like Lorena Wiebes and Arnaud De Lie, you'll get the low-down on all things sprinting.
Inside you'll discover exactly what it takes to become one of the fastest riders at the Tour de France. Dive in and learn about the formative years of sprinting and the emergence of specialized tactics such as sprint trains and lead-out riders. You'll also get an insight into the lives of some of the greatest sprinters of all time and their finest hours, before finally looking ahead to what the next decade of sprinting might hold.
