Aroview: A densely-constructed, insider's account of the world's greatest cycle race, the Tour de France, here caught in the midst of the 2003 struggles of two top German cyclists (Eric Zabel and Rolf Aldag) to pedal down the champion American, Lance Armstrong.

Boasting some superb race cinematography and enlivening roadside incidents, this should satisfy fans and novices alike, and can indeed claim to get somewhat to the fascinating psychological core of sports competition. The magnificent French countryside that forms the backdrop to the race, is another attractive reason to saddle up for this particular race.
