Very funny
Reader's Digest
His journey from self confessed 'football hack winging it in a sport beyond his ken' to his initiation into the Tour's nuances and eccentric characters delivers an amusing, warm and easy read
London Cyclist
This is, I'd say, the most enjoyable book of its kind since Tim Moore's French Revolutions, and is ideal for filling in the gaps between transmissions from this year's race
Guardian Sports
Hugely enjoyable...The only real problem with this book is that it's making me wish away the start of the summer and fast-forward to 2 July and le grand départ
Helen Pidd, Guardian
Hugely enjoyable... Brilliant
Ben East, Metro
I thought Ned was an old hand at the Tour. Evidently he was clueless... Told with panache
David Millar
A candid, insightful and often hilarious account
Alastair Campbell
Quirky, warped, enthusiastic and funny
Chris Boardman
Genuinely funny
Richard Williams
Made me chuckle
Mark Cavendish
Hilarious behind-the-scenes anecdotes
Glasgow Herald
Tour history is blended with anecdotes revealing the personalities and quirks of professional cycling
Times Higher Educational Supplement
An irreverent and funny take on cycling’s biggest race from a man who has seen it up close every year since 2003
Lesley McDowell, Glasgow Herald
I found his behind-the-scenes look at the famous race both highly amusing and telling in equal measure
Johann Lamont, Scotland on Sunday
Cycling at its best is fiercely cosmopolitan and internationalist, Boulting provides the kind of commentary the sport deserves, and will need if it is to fulfil its undoubted potential to reach out and grow
