Synopsis

The second in Sir Chris Hoy's fantastically fun, magical cycling adventure series.

Fergus Hamilton lives and dreams bikes and is really excited about training for the Great Cycle Challenge with his friends. But he's also got a secret. If the pedals on his bike spin backwards, he's magically transported to to Nevermore, where cycling is banned and his dad is a prisoner. Princess Lily wants to help, but first they'll need to brave the spooky abandoned Bicycle Graveyard. . .

Written with award-winning author Joanna Nadin, with fantastic illustrations from Clare Elsom.

"Champion cyclist Chris Hoy breathes his passion for cycling into this entertaining and imaginative adventure about an ordinary boy and his big cycling dreams." The Guardian
