Most Americans are unaware that the current national consciousness over bicycle racing--prompted by the 1984 Olympics where America won nine medals--is actually a resurgence. In the 1920s, the sport was as popular as baseball is today. Nye tells the story of those few fans with "hearts of lions" that keep the sport alive. Illustrated.
