Monumentos

In this updated edition, Peter Cossins explores the rich history of cycling's five legendary one-day races--Milan-San Remo, Tour of Flanders, Paris-Roubaix, Liège-Bastogne-Liège, and Il Lombardia--known as the Monuments. These grueling, storied events are the ultimate challenge for the world's top riders, offering both prestige and pain. Through vivid storytelling, Cossins captures the evolution, drama, and heroic efforts that have made these races cornerstones of cycling history.
