The narrative explores the life of Sylveer Maes, a Belgian cyclist who achieved remarkable success by winning the Tour de France in 1936 and 1939. It highlights the impact of the Second World War on his career and the challenges he faced, particularly during the tumultuous 1937 Tour, marked by intense nationalistic tensions that led to his early withdrawal despite leading the race. The book reflects on Maes's legacy and the long wait for another Belgian champion, Eddy Merckx, emphasizing the historical context of cycling in Belgium.
