Ned Boulting
"If 2018 had been the year of miracle, then 2019 was a pardigm shift. The cycling world tipped on an axis.
Years from now, the historians of this magnificent sport will reflect that this was the point in time when the old guard shuffled out, the new phalanx marched in, dusty traditions were torn up, tired conventions ignored and the continental shelves f the cycling world crashed their century-old tectonic plates together, with seismic consequences."
Took advantage of the discount and bought 2018 through to 2023 - fantastic value. Essay contributions across these volumes are interesting, expert & passionate about cycling. Looking forward to the 2024 edition. Definitely the “Wisden” of cycling & a must for any fan.

These are beautiful books. Wisden for Cycling. Like Ned Boulting I couldn’t believe something like this didn’t exist, but unlike him i didn’t have the connections and drive to make it happen. Thank you Ned. A real global legacy for the sport
Being 35years ago and the first year I closely followed cycling, this book takes me back to a special place.
It gave me a nostalgic glow that the newer books haven’t, but will in years to come.
Congrats to the team.
