Sean tells the story of his cycling career in his own words for the first time. After discovering a talent for cycling, he slowly realised that the sport could be his escape route from a life spent working on the farm. Spotted by the intimidating, inimitable directeur sportif Jean de Gribaldy, Sean went to France and turned professional. He won a stage of his first Tour de France in 1979 and established a reputation as a fast, if occasionally reckless, sprinter. Soon he developed into one of the best riders in the world and won almost everything there was to win. He won Paris-Roubaix, Liege-Bastogne-Liege and Milan-San Remo twice, earning himself the nickname King Kelly. His record seven consecutive victories in Paris-Nice is unlikely to be challenged and in 1988 he added a grand tour, the Vuelta a Espana, to his incredible list of victories. By the time he retired, he was widely respected as one of the greatest bike racers of all-time and one of the sport's toughest competitors. With a foreword by 2012 Tour de France champion Bradley Wiggins and an afterword by 1984 king of the mountains Robert Millar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780956781437\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780956781437\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Note:\u003c\/b\u003e Signed by the author, Sean Kelly, with \"Best wishes\".\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e CollectibleVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peloton Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53449849143623,"sku":"97-WMIG-435X","price":49.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0293\/7474\/2572\/files\/61ALUTyEUhL.jpg?v=1772577617","url":"https:\/\/www.pigeonhousebooks.com\/products\/hunger-sean-kelly-the-autobiography","provider":"Pigeonhouse Books, Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
