Ned Boulting, 1923: The Mystery of Lot 212 and a Tour de France Obsession

Second holiday read in the mad sun of Biscarrosse, and this read almost entirely by the pool on a lounger in the share. Ned Boulting is always worth reading, very funny and engaging, and what sounds like a dull read  - one man's boredom during covid leading him to investigate to the nth degree some old footage of a cyclist crossing a bridge in the 1923 TdF turns out to be quite a read after all. Probably helped that the TdF had just finished, and the Paris Olympics just started.
