On March 8th cycling takes its annual trip back to its roots, to the gravel roads of Tuscany in one of the most dramatic races of the year, Strade Bianche. We say ‘back to’ because in the early days of racing all roads were like the ones the riders will face on Sunday around Sienna. Today’s photo from the 1926 Tour de France shows what we mean. It climbed the Col d’Aubsique in the Pyrenees and is quite good for the time. At least the gravel is hard-packed and level. The rider is Bartolomea Aimo, an Italian from Turin. He was good with 6 Grand Tour podiums to his name (Giro d’Italia in 1921, ‘22, ‘23 and ’28, Tour de France in 1925 and ’26) but is extra interesting because he was the inspiration for a key character in Ernest Hemmingway’s novel, Farewell to Arms. Hemmingway often modelled characters on sportsmen. He studied them by immersing himself in several sports, learning all he could about them, about the people who practised them, and even practising them himself. He was an avid cyclist and became familiar with the sport during his years living in Europe. He went to big road events and particularly liked the atmosphere of six-day races. He was fascinated by the skill and speed of the six-days, but also the endurance of having one rider from each 2-man team circling the track for the whole race. Cycling inspired Hemmingway but Hemmingway also inspired a young cyclist. Jean Bobet, the younger brother of 3-time Tour de France winner Louison, loved Hemmingway’s novels. They influenced him so much that he made Hemmingway the subject of his English degree dissertation before becoming a pro rider himself. Jean was also a very successful journalist and author, and he never lost his love of Hemmingway. This quote was his favourite: "It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus, you remember them as they are." We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. Jean Bobet is one of the many riders from his generation who is interviewed in our book, Cycling Legends 03 Jacques Anquetil, the man behind the mask - cyclinglegends.co.uk/products/cycli… 📸 Agence Roi

It was fantastic to see the Cirque du Troumouse road open again, after floods washed part of it away in Sep '24. It was back open in time for the summer season, which was great for the local businesses and of course eager cyclists to experience this hidden gem climb! #cycling
