Mousehold Press Brian Robinson: Pioneer: Brian Robinson, the first Englishman ever to complete the Tour de France, went on to make a career as a professional cyclist in what is generally regarded as one of the toughest eras in a very tough sport. He adapted to French life, the continental style of racing and the taxing demands of a long season with clear-headed tenacity. For all the British riders who later followed him to Europe - and there have not been many since his days as a lone coureur anglais, still a comparatively rare breed - he was, without dispute, the great pioneer. Author: Graeme Fife Format: Hardback 240 pages Dimensions: 230mm x 152mm 12 pages of Black and white photographs

Rouleur Cycling Magazine - Issue 21 Books Rouleur Rouleur Cycling Magazine - Issue 21: The 21st issue of Rouleur takes the focus off bike and directs it at the riders, with features on Michael Rasmussen, Flecha, Brian Robinson and more. Michael Barry takes a break from riding for Team Sky to pen an essay on teammate Juan Antonio Flecha, one of the peloton's most widely respected and likable characters, while Timm Kölln trains his lens on both author and subject. Rouleur Editor Guy Andrews lays his shirt on the Grand Prix Final at the Tachikawa Velodrome in his second instalment of the fascinating - and wealthy - world of Japanese keirin racing. Taz Darling's photographs are winners. Guy lost everything. Graeme Fife celebrates the recent 80th birthday of one of the great British cyclists and his win in the 1961 Dauphiné Libéré in an extract from the newly published book Brian Robinson - Pioneer. Geoff Waugh delivers some superb portraiture. Fife also sits down with German sprinter Danilo Hondo to paint a revealing portrait of a young rider's life behind the Iron Curtain alongside Jan Ullrich before turning professional. Sofie Andersen breathes a sigh of relief now that Timm Kölln's The Peloton is published and considers what drives a man to undertake such a gargantuan project in Le Temps Perdu. Herbie Sykes takes on two very differing subjects. In the third installment of Jan Hirt, our young Czech hopeful looks to be on his way home after a season of struggle in Italy. Michael Rasmussen, meanwhile, appears in the Danish equivalent of Strictly Come Dancing in a surreal twist to the story of a troubled man trying to break back into the cycling world. Ben Ingham photographs both stories with aplomb.
