Velopress Paris-roubaix - A Journey Through Hell Books Velopress Velopress Paris-Roubaix - A Journey Through Hell: Paris-Roubaix is the world's most famous one-day cycle race. Held in north eastern France it is aptly known as "The Hell of the North" - a name resulting from the long stretches of muddy farm roads, paved with roughhewn "bone-shaking" cobblestones. The course is made more treacherous by notoriously fickle weather, often including rain, wind and snow. The race has been held annually, on the third Sunday in April, since 1896, and follows a 270km course between the suburbs of Paris and the city of Roubaix. Paris-Roubaix: A Journey Through Hell recounts the history and excitement of the race in oversized format and with hundreds of spectacular colour and black and white photos. The authoritative text is put together by top sportswriters at France's L'Equipe magazine and gives the inside story of the race and its traditions, and the champion cyclists it has helped to confirm. Spectacular black and white and colour photography brings into stark contrast the harsh conditions of this race and the toll it takes on its riders - the "hard men" of cycling. The editors of L'Equipe, the premier cycling and sports publication in France, have compiled the content for this book from their comprehensive archives. A chronological sequence unveils the history of the race. The book includes profiles of the mostcolourful and dominant riders. Includes an exclusive, behind-the-scenes chapter, a perspective shared only by those who have travelled to witness Paris-Roubaix first hand. Large format hardback with jacket; 224 pages; 325 x 260mm portrait; b&w and colour photos throughout. Review this product |

Rouleur Le Metier Books Rouleur Rouleur Le Metier: Le Métier is a collaboration between Michael and Rouleur photographer Camille J McMillan. It's an honest and sometimes touching look into the life, the trials and the tribulations as well as the triumphs, of a cycling domestique. Following on from his 2005 debut "Inside the Postal Bus", a sideways view at life as a team-mate of Lance Armstrong on the U.S Postal team, and "Fitness Cycling", a cycling training guide collaboration with Dede Demet Barry and Shannon Sovndal, Team Sky's Michael Barry now casts his net to the wider world of professional cycling in a brand new book Le Métier. As a professional cyclist Barry has lived the dream that many an aspiring racer covets - worldwide travel in the heady atmosphere of professional bike racing and all that it brings. Michael is also a pro-cycling rarity in that he has an immense talent for writing and it is the coupling of these two aspects of his life that are now captivating readers of his books and print and online columns. His poignant prose, which has also been featured in the New York Times, along with Camille's atmospheric photography create a volume that gives the reader a rare glance into the fascinating and occasionally strange world of professional cycling.
