Description

Bicycle races present some of the most dramatic action scenes in sports. Add to that the snowy Swiss Alps, the sunflowers of the South of France, the twisted mountain roads above the blue Mediterranean, and one has a book for both landscape lovers and bicycle enthusiasts. Organized by season, the book takes readers around the globe, from the Australian championships to the Tour de France, highlighting the majesty and grit of the sport against a backdrop of exquisite, compelling scenery. The book includes some of Watson's most famous landscape shots as well as many never-before published photographs.
