About this product

Product Information

The hottest sprinter in the world - Telegraph Mark Cavendish is the first British cyclist to win the Tour de France's green jersey, the first to wear the iconic rainbow jersey in almost 50 years and our only ever rider to capture the Giro d'Italia points title. He is the most prolific sprinter in the Tour's history, and - according to L'Equipe - the best sprinter of all time. But smashing records and racking up victories means whole new levels of fame- and this has come at a price. Living in the goldfish bowl, he has come under fire for his bombastic riding style and been portrayed as everything from an outlaw to a psychopath. Joining Sky in 2012, Cav soon found his own sprint interests to be incompatible with the team's other goals, while the expectations of a nation made his London Olympic failure hard to take. In At Speed Cav takes you through the highs and lows of it all in intimate detail. This is a take-no-prisoners account of life at the pinnacle of his sport, and learning how to survive in the fast lane, both on and off the bike.

  • Cavendish exposed

    A very good insight into the thoughts of Mark Cavendish. He lays bare the intracies of the tactics of a sprint cyclist which are quite different to the competitor after the yellow jersey. He examines the successes and failures of his team, his supporting riders and his own mistakes and achievements. A brilliant read for one of his big fans or someone interested in a behind the scenes look at professional cycle racing
