Fight the pain, but don't look up."Under grey skies and through the ruins of war, two veterans battled for the Tour's first yellow jersey. Firmin Lambot and Eugene Christophe had raced each other into the ground; the race had come down to what some riders were calling the hunger stage - 420km from Metz to Dunkirk.We Rode All Day is the story of that fateful 1919 Tour de France; the Tour that very nearly never was. In the voices of the riders and race organisers, We Rode All Day throws you into the action - the dirt, the pain, the drugs, the cobbles, the mountains, the sheer madness of riding your bike for 5,500km around France. And two men who knew this could be their last Tour.As Lambot makes his move, can Christophe's bike and body hold?We Rode All Day reveals the stories that made the 1919 Tour special. The slaying of Henri Pelissier, scourge of the peloton; the emergence of Honore Barthelemy, the climbing revelation, and the efforts of Henri Desgrange, organiser of the Tour since its inception in 1903. The book is finally an opportunity to hear the voices of the riders and organisers, bringing to life an era of cycling - and with it, a generation of cyclists - that had long been forgotten.…

Hugo was handsome, Ferdy was not. Hugo was elegant, Ferdy was not. Hugo had all the girls. Ferdy did not. A rivalry that had been simmering for years exploded into life. Every time Hugo won a race, Ferdy was inspired to go one further, until the day Hugo stopped winning and his life slowly started to unravel.From Six-Day races around Europe to multiple Tours of France, Italy and Switzerland, the two K's dominated both road and track cycling at the start of the 1950s. Riders complained about chasing white crosses all day, but as decline set in, both men had to learn how to cope with a peloton that was passing them by.Koblet + Kübler is the story of two contrasting riders whose lives will forever be intertwined. How they won Grand Tours, World Championships and Classics, how rivalry turned to friendship, and how it all went tragically wrong.Author Gareth Cartman weaves imagined first-person narrative into this double biography of Switzerland's finest ever cyclists. Taking inspiration from his first book, We Rode All Day, the voices of Hugo Koblet and Ferdy Kubler are brought to life as the book charts their rise to prominence, their domination of the sport and their decline, resulting in tragedy for Hugo. …
