Here, for the first time, is the inside story of how the Tour was won and what it takes to make the leap from Tour contender to Tour champion.

From joining the BMC team to crossing the finish line, award-winning journalist Rupert Guinness reveals the fascinating lead up and preparation behind Cadel's historic victory in the 2011 Tour de France.

The campaign to win the Tour de France begins the day the last Tour finishes.

He recounts the stages of the race and reveals how the the team supported Cadel's incredible all-or-nothing performance-the tactics they employed and the challenges that they had to overcome.

This compelling window into the biggest event on the road cycling calendar gives a unique insight into the winning combination of team, training, talent and courage-and how Cadel's preparation for the Tour de France paid off with a spectacular win.
