' The whole point of a race is to find a winner I chose to race so I chose to win' For 14 years between 1965 & 1978 cyclist Edouard Louis Joseph Merckx simply devoured his rivals their hopes & their careers His legacy resides as much in the careers he ruined as the 445 victories
- including five Tour de France wins & all the monument races
- he amassed in his own right So dominant had Merckx become by 1973 that he was ordered to stay away from the Tour for the good of the event Stage 17 of the 1969 Tour de France perfectly illustrates his untouchable brilliance Already wearing the yellow jersey on the col du Tourmalet the Tour's most famous peak Merckx powered clear & rode the last 140 kilometres to the finish-line in jaw-dropping solitude eight minutes ahead of his nearest competitor Merckx's era has been called cycling's Golden Age It was full of memorable characters who at any other time would all have gone on to become legends Yet Merckx's phenomenal career overshadowed them all How did he achieve such incredible success? & how did his rivals really feel about him? Merckx failed drug tests three times in his career
- were they really stitch ups as he claimed? & what of the crash at a track meet in Blois France that killed Merckx's pacer Fernand Wambst which Merckx claimed deeply affected him psychologically & physically? Or the attack by a spectator in 1975? Despite his unique achievements we know little about the Cannibal beyond his victories This will be the first comprehensive biography of Merckx in English & will finally expose the truth behind this legendary man
