I really enjoyed this book - found out about it online and decided to give it a go as it sounded interesting. The mixture of mystery and cycling was very well balanced, however readers more in favour of the murder mystery aspect of this book may not fully understand all of the cycling references of it. However for me, it was very enjoyable and I loved Marc's characterisation and the domestique role that is a main aspect of this mystery.
