Boulting's velosaurus : a linguistic Tour de France
Boulting, Ned2016
Book
The language of cycling is vibrant, sophisticated, often impenetrable and extremely French. Find yourself confused, nodding along when a rouleur relates how le biscuit was effrite (crumbled)? How today they're feeling angers (past caring)? In this work, ITV Tour de France commentator and cycling writer Ned Boulting provides the ultimate lexicon of nonsense terminology surrounding the esteemed Tour de France.
