    Vuelta Skelter

    Riding the Remarkable 1941 Tour of Spain

And it is also a tribute to Berrendero - a tough, dour loner who refuses to give an inch, either to the mountains or to the authorities... Moore wants to restore JB [Berrendero] to his proper place in the ranks of cycling legends. He succeeds superbly.

    Vuelta Skelter

    Der »Bill Bryson auf zwei Rädern« hat es wieder getan: Tim Moore vollendet seine epische (und nicht minder unvernünftige) Trilogie der großen Landesrundfahrten des Radsports. Julián Berrenderos Sieg bei der Vuelta a España 1941 war eine denkwürdige Form von Wiedergutmachung mit den Mitteln des Sports. Der spanische Radprofi hatte gerade 18 Monate in Francos Konzentrationslagern verbracht, als Strafe für seine Sympathiebekundungen für die Republikaner während des Bürgerkriegs. Neunundsiebzig Jahre später entwickelte der ewig überehrgeizige Radabenteurer Tim Moore eine Faszination für Berrenderos Geschichte und machte sich mit einem alten Rennrad, das mit dem Namen des großen Mannes übersät war, auf den Weg, um die knapp 4.400 Kilometer lange Strecke seines Triumphs nachzufahren - und das inmitten einer weltweiten Pandemie. Das Resultat ist eine Geschichte von brutaler Hitze und einsamen Straßen, von Ruhm, Erniedrigung und noch viel mehr Erniedrigung. Unterwegs erzählt Tim Moore von den noch immer lebendigen Tragödien des Bürgerkriegs und begegnet höchst geselligen und zugleich beeindruckend verantwortungsbewussten Einheimischen, die ständig hin- und hergerissen sind zwischen der freudigen Begrüßung des einzigen ausländischen Besuchers ihres Landes und der Versuchung, ihn und sein dreckiges Fahrrad in einen Bottich mit antiviralem Gel zu stecken.

    Spanish Steps

    Ludicrous, heart-warming and improbably inspirational, Spanish Steps is the story of what happens when a rather silly man tries to walk all the way across a very large country, with a very large animal who doesn't really want to.Being larger than a cat, the donkey is the kind of animal Tim Moore is slightly scared of.
