RICHARD MITCHELSON'S

GRAND TOUR

A TWO-WHEELED CHAIN-DRIVEN INTERACTIVE ARTISTIC ADVENTURE RICHARD MITCHELSON

Pens replace pneux and pencils are your peloton as the doyen of British cycle illustrators, Richard Mitchelson, leads you on a magnificent ride through an entire season of grand-tour racing. Fun, dynamic, interactive, and entertaining, Richard Mitchelson’s Grand Tour is infused with a “broom-wagon” full of cycling style, culture, history and humour.

Prepare for the Giro d’Italia by personalising your race-jersey and cap, or choose to create one of those sported by “maglia rosa” legends down the years.

Select your ride, study the route of the Gran Corsa or just design your own road to Milan. Get creative on the Passo dello Stelvio and “copy Coppi” with an “Il Campionissimo” Dot to Dotti. Move on to the Grand Départ of the Tour de France, design your very own “Grand Boucle” and fill in your race number on the board. The finishing line is wherever you want it to be.

Richard Mitchelson is originally from Yorkshire, Britain’s cycling heartland, but is now based in the South Downs near Brighton. He worked as Lead Animator at London’s Mind Candy studio managing a fantastic team and animating fun, engaging characters for the hit kids brand Moshi Monsters. He now creates animation, illustration, and design for clients such as: Oakley, Mark Cavendish, Howies, Team Sky Pro Cycling, British Cycling and 2015 Tour De France Champion Chris Froome. He is much celebrated for his work for Rouleur Magazine, having documented famous races and cyclists in his simple, bold, clean style.

Whether shooting from within the peloton, or partying with the fans on Mont Ventoux, the pictures in this beautifully produced volume reveal some of the many stories cycling photographer Camille Mcmillan has witnessed.

Sometimes intimate, other times aggressive, always beautiful, his images are unique.

This stunning photographic volume, with many never-before-seen reportage images, spans some two decades of life at the forefront of world cycling. Documenting a year in the life of the professional cyclist, we are taken from trackside at Ghent’s famed Six-Day races, across the cobbles of Paris-Roubaix and on to the tifosi of the Grand Tour climbs. Circus takes us from behind-the-scenes in riders’ hotel rooms, onto the seat of a speeding “moto” and into the celebratory anticipation of a roadside bar as locals await the blurred chaos of the peloton.

Camille, formerly editor-at-large of Rouleur Magazine, captures the pain, heroism and humanity of this most challenging of sports.

6 days of Ghent; Brits in the pit

Arriving at the velodrome in Ghent for the

<###>

opening night of the Six-Days cycle races in November is like stepping into the fuggy

embrace of a fairground on a cold winter evening. The atmosphere inside the

cavernous ‘t Kuipke building is thick with the smell of fried onions, hotdogs, burgers and beer.

The sober-minded cycling fans take their

seats at the 5,000-capacity arena, peering

down on the steep-banked oval wooden track to get the full sweep of the races. But in the

middle of the track there is a party going on.

And it is open to anyone.

While the pro cyclists fly around the banks

of the velodrome like stunt riders on the wall of death, the centre of the circuit is heaving with bodies drinking and chatting and

shuffling around in small circles, in a vain

attempt to take in the action. These are men

and women in suits, youngsters in fancy dress, groups of guys in vintage cycling kit … it is like a scene from a huge office party. The opening night of the Ghent Six-Days races is a big

event on the social calendar of this city in the East Flanders region of Belgium: it is the

opening salvo of their festive celebrations.

And the party will go on for another five nights.

The racing is fast-flowing and near

constant over the evening – 26 riders in teams

of two, pedalling in a series of races for almost six hours straight, from 8pm to 2am, each

covering close to 100km a night – flat out – for six nights. It is the cycling equivalent of

the Depression-era dance marathons made

famous in the film They Shoot Horses, Don’t

They? Except that the origins of track cycling

date back to England in the late 19th-century, “responding to a popular taste in mid-

Victorian England for unusual, sometimes callous, displays of physical strength and stamina”, according to the late Observer sports journalist Geoffrey Nicholson.

CIRCUS

Six-day races became popular in mainland

Europe in the early 20th century and have been a staple of the racing calendar in Ghent since 1922, with past winners including the Belgian legend Eddy Merckx Mark Cavendish improved on the third

night of the Ghent Six-Day after a rocky opening couple of days. Having just returned from a two-week holiday in the Far East, Cavendish was found wanting on the first night as he and Bradley Wiggins lost seven laps in the first Madison race. But after another difficult Madison early on Thursday evening he discovered his track legs as the night wore on, winning an elimination race and making a major impression on the second 40-minute Madison.

INSIDE THE WORLD OF PROFESSIONAL BIKE RACING

<# # # >

CAMILLE J MCMILLAN | FOREWORD BY DAVID MILLAR One-time racer, full-time artist and dreamer, now living in a cabin on a mountain in the Ariège, French Pyrénées, Camille McMillan's passion for professional cycling began at an early age, long before competing in the sport as a junior in the UK and Europe. This passion was to later merge with his increasing fascination with image-making.

bleached skulls at the roadside to complete its sense of desolation.”

Geoffrey Nicholson’s The Great Bike Race is universally revered by modern cycling critics as the benchmark English-language volume of the sport and has risen to mythical status. The first book in English to tell the entire story of a full tour, it truly captivates from start to finish.

Nicholson’s classic, vivid descriptions of the racing, personalities, tactics and intrigues of the 1976 race are rotated with insights which lift the lid on the broader culture and lengthy traditions of cycling’s most famous race and the greatest annual sports event in the world.

On the 40th anniversary of its first publication, Velodrome Publishing is most honoured to republish and celebrate this seminal tome as the launch volume in the “Vintage Velodrome” series of titles. The Great Bike Race includes an incisive introduction by The Guardian cycling correspondent and best-selling author William Fotheringham.

“THE GREAT BIKE RACE REMAINS, IN MY EYES, THE FINEST BOOK EVER WRITTEN ABOUT THE TOUR DE FRANCE” – William Fotheringham “IF THERE WERE A MAILLOT JAUNE FOR SPORTSWRITERS, MR NICHOLSON SHOULD BE WEARING IT” – The Economist “THE QUALITY OF HIS WRITING TRANSFORMED THE CHARACTER OF SPORTS JOURNALISM” – The Guardian Geoffrey Nicholson was one of the most original, prolific and best-liked sports writers of the past 50 years. He helped transform the character of sports journalism in the late 1950s by eschewing tabloid clichés and public relations hype and introducing a quality of writing which matched that of the arts and foreign pages. He was to become sports editor of the Observer and the Sunday Correspondent, sports features editor of the Sunday Times and rugby correspondent of the Independent.

Nicholson’s main interest was cycling, and he covered the Tour de France for 20 years.

Aside from the bikes themselves, the jersey – maillot or maglia – has become the most iconic symbol of cycling’s history, its proud teams and preeminent riders and most recently its fashion. There is a booming collectors market for vintage jerseys. Sir Paul Smith features jerseys in his collections and designs them for the Grand Tours. The finest quality traditional and retro manufacturers including De Marchi, Castelli and Rapha are registering huge increases in sales.

In this beautifully photographed, handsome new volume, Oliver Knight traces the development of the jersey from the days long before Lycra as function fused with sponsors’ requirements to peddle their brands. He goes behind-the-scenes at the manufacturers and tells stories of the garments’ design, manufacture and slow evolution.

He celebrates the iconic tour jerseys and the magical rainbow stripes of the world champions. He interviews former and current pros and uncovers the inspirations and obsessions of some of the world’s greatest cycling collectors, riders, historians and key figures from the worlds of design and fashion.
