Literaire voorbereiding op de Tour de France (van 1992).

This collection of cycling stories is not a book to be read all in one go. I got the ebook from the library and, reading a chapter or two at a time, only finished it the day before the loan expired. But that does not mean I was struggling. The stories were well written and struck a good balance between not shying away from awkward issues like doping but still clearly focussing on the cycling. Likewise, there is a degree of hero worship, but not too extreme. In summary, I enjoyed the book, but it did suffer from being a bit repetitive in the format of the chapters which were sometimes just too much like each other, with similar questions being put to cyclists with a similar life story.

Zelf geen wielrenner, maar vond deze verhalen verrassend leuk! Sibelink schrijft sowieso goed (en afwisselend) en ik vermoed (maar geen flauw idee, toen het boek uitkwam was ik amper geboren) dat hij ook alle grote spelrs uit die tijd gesproken heeft.

Aanrader dus!

Leuk boekje met verhalen over wielrenners opgetekend door Siebelink, zelf een wielerfan... leuk om te lezen, maar geen topliteratuur
