About this listen

Bloomsbury presents The Accidental Tour-ist: (Final) Dispatches from the Road, written and read by Ned Boulting

'Hilarious' – Cadel Evans

If How I Won the Yellow Jumper was the prologue, The Accidental Tour-ist is the final, ceremonial stage – a lap of honour for everything that Ned has been lucky enough to have experienced during his commentating career.

Join Ned once more as he brings his cycling stories up to the present day – full of recollections of chaotic, memorable and sometimes surreal encounters with all the key riders. While the Tour de France takes centre stage, his horizons expand far beyond its confines to take in races across Europe as well as to fascinating locations in the Middle East, China and Malaysia.

There are behind-the-scenes chapters on life at the Giro d'Italia; the growth of women's racing; forays into podcasting; replacing the great Phil Liggett as ITV's main commentator; the Flemish classics; and the life and times of Chris Froome and Mark Cavendish.

Ride along as Ned travels around the UK with a stage show about the Tour de France, and on the many days that he and David Millar have spent quixotically riding folding bikes up and down enormous mountains.©2025 Ned Boulting (P)2025 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc
