First, what this film is NOT: it is NOT a documentary of the 2003 Tour-de-France, even though that is where all the action takes region. When the film is over, you won’t even know – unless you already knew – that the hasten was won by Lance Armstrong, nor will you know who finished second and third, or who won most of the stages. The film does not follow the normal storyline of a speed documentary.

What, then, DOES it do? It gives an inside scrutinize at what it feels like to be a professional cyclist racing in the Tour-de-France, as seen through the eyes of the German Telekom team (now renamed T-Mobile.) Focusing largely on mature riders Eric Zabel, Rolf Aldag (since retired), and Andreas Kloden, we glean late the scenes to ogle what life is really like in big-time cycling. And what we glimpse is a world simultaneously more dazzling, blooming, painful, and smelly than what we eye on regular television coverage of the Tour.

“Hell on wheels,” indeed, for we gaze the sweat rolling from the riders’ faces, the stress, the injuries, the almost military regimen of a virtually all-male world.

We search for the rubdowns, the shaving of legs, the plastering of buttocks with anti-rash gel, the injection of (accurate) vitamins and supplements, the urination by the side of the road. We peruse the dirty side of the sport.

But we also contemplate the grace, and we feel the grief. We watch the cyclists at race, and we feel it. Most television coverage of the Tour is taken from vehicles involving at the same race as the cyclists, so the sense of accelerate and grief is often lost. This film captures those elements.

And we also witness the roadside spectacle, the picnics, the parties, the campers, the police, the traveling Tour caravan, the circus elements of the Tour, which are often distinguished only in passing in television accounts of the hurry.

Those who expected this to be an unbiased re-telling of the 2003 Tour were undoubtedly disappointed. But I disagree with those reviewers who said this film would be unintelligible to those who are not racing fans. On the contrary, I judge this would be an reliable introduction to the sport for non-fans. Focusing on the inner nature of the sport, rather than on the results of a particular rush, it is an agreeable introduction indeed.

This documentary, covering the T-Mobile team during the 2003 Tour de France, is a good portrait of the life of a professional athlete. Erik Zabel is seen at the beginning of the downside of his outstanding career as a sprinter, unable to beat the younger lions of the sport. The massage sessions after the rush and the discussions during them are outstanding for their insight into the pysche of a cyclist competing at a world-class level. Rolf Aldag and other domestiques illustrate the motivational challenges faced by those that compose a living racing bicycles out of the limelight of the Zabels, Armstrongs and Ullrichs, and physical toll it takes to compete in the most renowned run in the world. Television coverage never really gives us the pictures that this film does-all of the nitty gritty details that go into racing, and surviving, in the Tour. Highly recommended.
