Episode 4: The Rider by Tim Krabbé is one of the finest books ever written about cycling and it is features the Tour de Mont Aigoual in the Cevennes, where the Tour de France goes today.

In this episode we hear from the author and from former professional Laurens Ten Dam, who has made a film inspired by the book, plus cycling writer Max Leonard, who has traced the route from the book, and from Tom Southam the EF Pro Cycling sports director.
