Project Rainbow: How British Cycling Reached the Top of the World

The only downside to the book is it can feel a little repetitive as although the timeline is moving on, Ellingworth's approach and pre-occupations are constant. Nov 11, Phil Marceau rated it it was amazing. Rod Ellingworth's book shows the take on cycling the new generation needs and details the use of the now-popularized marginal gains approach to optimize cyclists' performance.

A must-read for any cycling enthusiast who wants to see what it takes to be the best in the new era of pro-racing. Mar 22, Robert Drummond rated it really liked it.

    That is the perfect expression of the corruption likely when a cycling federation is also running the pro team. Great cover I have that image on my wall! A nod to http: Where are the other guys? What do they do from age ? Ullrich was the unbreakable egg, as was Cav. The russians often all broke. Again, Cadel, Porte, McEwen came from a different path.

    Or go into another area of cycling. Or go and study full-time. But still a development squad, of which there are a number across different countries. You might as well criticise the entire concept of u23 development set-ups. You can admire this in many ways but I noted the contrast with other systems where studies — not cookery lessons — form part of the programme. I should have made it clearer in my post.
