 About the Author 
Luke Edwardes-Evans is a freelance writer who regularly contributes articles to Cycling Weekly. He is the author of the Official Tour de France Bike Maintenance Book. He lives in Tonbridge, in Kent, a short hop from France.\nSerge Laget has followed the Tour since 1954 when, aged seven, he watched the peloton ride through his native Cévennes region of southern France. As a journalist, he has covered the race for 
L'Équipe - France's leading sports newspaper - for more than 30 years, and also written numerous Tour-related books.\nAndy McGrath is a staff writer for

 Cycle Sport magazines. He has covered the Tour de France, Tour of Italy and the sport's big one-day Classics.\nBorn in Yffiniac, Brittany, Bernard Hinault was the last great French champion of the Tour de France. A proud Breton, he had the strength of character to assume leadership of the tight-knit peloton from an early age, and his five Tour wins place him among the greatest cyclists of all time. One of the most self-possessed champions in Tour history, he remains a legend. Hinault vowed to retire aged 32 and did just that, riding his last Tour in 1986 and winning three stages, the King of the Mountains, and lending a hand to Greg LeMond en route to the American’s first Tour win.
