What does it take to become a road racing legend and compete in the toughest sport in the world? Go behind the scenes with the teams and riders at all the major tours and classics through the lens of world-class pro-cycling photographer, Kristof Ramon.
The Art of Suffering is about the human story of road racing, what it takes to go deep and be the best, and the awe-inspiring feats of endurance that make road cycling one of the most challenging, most legendary, most inspirational sports in the world.
From battling the elements and the terrain to epic climbs, crashes, injuries and recovery; personal sacrifices, pushing the body to the limit, training, winning, losing and long seasons on the road; featuring the domestiques, the star riders, the new talent and the legends - this book captures all the reasons why cycling fans passionately love their sport, taking them closer to the action and their favourite riders than any other book.
Carefully curated, thoughtfully designed and beautifully produced - The Art of Suffering is the ultimate gift for cycling fans and features a foreword by Wout van Aert, the subject of Ramon's cover photograph.
Kristof Ramon is one of the world's top pro-cycling photographers. He started his career as a filmmaker but for the last 14 years has focused exclusively on cycling photography, covering all the major races, from the classics - such Paris-Roubaix, Tour of Flanders and the Strade Bianche - to the major tours - the Giro d'Italia, the Tour de France and la Vuelta a España. Kristof's talent for storytelling, his ability to capture the atmosphere and raw emotion of racing makes his images stand out from the typical race photography. His reputation has earned him the respect and trust of many of the big teams and riders - which is why Kristof is able to capture those extraordinary in-between moments and behind-the-scenes images very few photographers have the opportunity to shoot.
