À propos de ce titre
‘Entertaining, quirky and an enjoyable read’ – Phil Liggett MBE
'Entertaining... Carlton shows no sign of running out of amusing anecdotes... A worthy sequel that will give his fans more of what they like' – Road.cc
Eurosport’s legendary commentator Carlton Kirby takes us all on a tour of the professional cycling race year.
A true cycling nut would be hard pushed to even name all 36 races on the UCI World Tour, but there is much more to professional racing than national tours and monuments. It’s a year-long global schedule venturing as far afield as Burkina Faso and Gabon. So why not take some of these roads less travelled in the company of Carlton Kirby, a real commentary nomad, cycling expert and hilarious raconteur.
Carlton’s year follows the cycling seasons through the Spring Classics to the Grand Tours and on to the World Championships and Six Day track racing. In between he’s visiting the lesser known, bizarre and challenging races such as Tour de Langkawi, Flanders‘ Scheldeprijs, The Red Hook Crit in New Jersey and UK’s National Hill Climb Championships.
Along the way we hear great cycling stories from the past as well as how he appeared in a blockbuster action movie, bought an octopus in an auction, got lost in a storm on a sacred Catalonian mountain and faced near death in a biscuit factory. And that’s just some of the anecdotes that don’t involve Sean Kelly.©2023 Carlton Kirby (P)2023 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Avis de la critique
Entertaining, quirky and an enjoyable read from a clever writer
Working with Carlton is a rollercoaster ride. Occasionally scary but always a lot of fun. Much like his books
The tales, stories and experiences from Carlton engross you, it’s almost as if you were there with him in person. Guaranteed to give you a good chuckle!
Listening to Carlton Kirby for the first time is like a cyclist doing their first sticky bottle. Before you know it, it's an unescapable and pain-relieving habit
Carlton Kirby is a legend in the world of cycling. This book is a must for all fans of the sport. Get ready to snort with laughter
Carlton's calls are more unique, energy-filled, and entertaining than any I have heard. I am sure you'll find the same in this book
Carlton is the ultimate cycling story teller. He has the ability to make big wins legendary. He is a joy for cycling fans globally!
If races went off on as many tangents as Carlton does during commentary they would be 500km long! ... But working with Carlton on broadcast is like getting a sticky bottle!
Entertaining... Carlton shows no sign of running out of amusing anecdotes... A worthy sequel that will give his fans more of what they like.
It is an experience that any professional cycling fan cannot afford to miss
Though cycling and then the cycling calendar are always atthe forefront of each chapter, he beautifully and colourfully constructs scenery around it.
A lovely book from a lovely man!
