Rouleur Books Now In stock!

Rouleur Books Now In stock!

We have recently taken stock of the following fantastic books. A must for all cycling fans!

Rouleur Annual - Volume 5 - £35.00
Rouleur photographers and writers have once again traveled to bike races far and wide to find the wonderful – along with a smattering of the weird – for the fifth Rouleur Annual…

Maglia Rosa – Triumph and Tragedy at the Giro d’Italia - £29.00
The book, Maglia Rosa – Triumph and tragedy at the Giro d’Italia, is the first of its kind in the English language, and is written by Turin resident and regular Rouleur contributor Herbie Sykes.

Over 312 pages, Sykes takes the reader on an inspiring, magical journey. In so doing he evokes 100 years of the race for the maglia rosa, the mythical pink jersey of the race leader. In addition the book contains over 100 stunning photographs, a century of Italy’s great sporting festival captured on film.

The work uncovers the myths and legends of Italy’s very own grand tour, first run off in 1909. Legends like Coppi, Bartali, Merckx, Gimondi and Moser are featured, but so too are the likes of Brunero and Guerra, Valetti and Zilioli, icons of the Giro whose stories have never been told in English.

See in store for details...

Rouleur Issue 27!

Rouleur is a bi-monthly cycling magazine. It brings together leading cycling writers and photographers to convey the essence and imagery of road racing.

If there is a theme to this issue, then it is one of transformation. Fritz Gallati was the first professional to be stripped of his licence and banned from racing for doping offences in a scandal that rocked Switzerland in 1961. Herbie Sykes unravels the plot behind the former Six-Day rider’s story while Fritz applies the greasepaint. Ben Ingham captures the tears of a clown on camera.
