Cet immense parc d’attractions au cœur des volcans vient de rouvrir à 2h de Lyon
THE FOLLOWING PASSAGE is an extract from ‘The Ascent’
as Paul Kimmage soft-pedalled over the Côte de Montagnole in the company of Sean Kelly
a Dubliner based as a professional in the United States
it was hard to ignore the occasional pang of regret
Kimmage still looked the part in his Fagor kit but he was already in the process of stepping off the field of dreams
Two days after Stephen Roche’s abandon at the Tour the previous month
he had climbed off his bike on the road to Montpellier
demoralised by the internal bickering at Fagor
Kimmage had made up his mind that he was in his last season as a professional bike rider
as he rode with the Irish team as they reconnoitred the World Championships course in Chambéry
There would be no raging against the dying of the light as part of Kelly’s big push for the prize he most coveted
I wish I’d gone on and finished that Tour and ridden that World Championships in Chambéry
It would have been a nice way to finish,’ Kimmage says
‘But there was a poisonous atmosphere at Fagor
Kimmage watched from the sidelines as Kelly endured the greatest disappointment of his sporting life
Kelly was running out of chances to be world champion
but he rode sagely and bravely on a wet afternoon in the Alps to stay in the hunt
a happily ever after coda to his fairy-tale comeback win at the Tour de France that summer
An ashen-faced Kelly stood on the podium alongside the American
his head anchored downwards by the bronze medal around his neck
No other defeat punctured his stoicism quite like this one
Kimmage felt compassion for Kelly’s distress; as a nascent sportswriter
he felt inspired by the pathos the occasion inspired
But before he could expound on others from the press box
When David Walsh interviewed him on his debut Tour for Magill magazine in 1986
he found the transcript so compelling – or perhaps his deadline so tight – that he turned in a 5,000-word first-person account
Kimmage contributed occasionally to the Irish Cycling Review
when he was not selected for the 1988 Tour
Walsh had planned to co-write a book on the Tour with Kimmage
but now proposed he write a piece on the race each week for the Sunday Tribune
Active sportspeople’s columns tend to be bland
but Kimmage’s were colourful and darkly comic
Sunday Tribune editor Vincent Browne offered him a job
but he would pen a column throughout the following season for the newspaper
it was clear that he was extracting more pleasure from moonlighting than he was from his day job
he decided to retire from cycling to concentrate on journalism
In the months between abandoning the Tour and moving back to Dublin to start work with the Sunday Tribune in February 1990
Kimmage wrote A Rough Ride – it would lose the indefinite article by the time an updated edition was published in 1998 – on a Honeywell laptop computer given to him by Browne
he had signed a contract with the publisher Stanley Paul
who planned to release the book in the run-up to the 1990 Tour de France
Kimmage had pierced the glamorous veneer of professional cycling by writing about the back-stabbing within teams or providing details like the time he urinated on his hands to keep them warm on a snowy descent at the Giro
Kimmage felt it beholden upon him to peel another layer from the onion and talk about a topic he had neglected in his columns
The response from his peers to an interview he gave to L’Équipe during his final Tour gave Kimmage the encouragement he needed
and the story ran with a photograph of me in my Fagor jersey with a little electric typewriter,’ Kimmage says
And what was amazing was that one of Kelly’s old teammates
this awareness of the need to write something about the problem in the sport
Kimmage’s fellow Irish professionals had an inkling that he was writing a book
but little notion of what it might contain
when Kimmage covered Paris-Nice for the Sunday Tribune
‘I spent a couple of days with him at Paris- Nice
and he asked me about it then: “What are you going to be saying?” And that was the first sense that I was a bit wary about it,’ Kimmage recalls
and though cycling’s doping culture was the central plank of the book
there was not a single accusation levelled against Roche
His admiration for Kelly was more restrained
and while Kimmage admitted his lingering resentment towards Earley
the depiction of his one-time rival was ultimately a flattering one
Kimmage described the prevalence of needles in cycling
the haphazard nature of anti-doping controls and the unwillingness of the authorities to do anything about it
all refracted through his own bid to get by in the peloton without recourse to doping
He confessed to using amphetamine at the Chateau-Chinon criterium in 1987
mindful of the outrage it would provoke in Ireland
he was very careful not to specify that the two other criteriums at which he had doped were in Dublin and Cork
explicitly name some of his RMO teammates in his accounts of doping practices
though they are depicted empathetically as victims of a poisoned culture rather than sensationalised as cheats
but it was green of Kimmage to think that such nuance would be appreciated by the likes of Thierry Claveyrolat and Jean-Claude Colotti
particularly when the book was never translated into French
Kimmage fielded a call from Peter Crinnion
and began to realise that A Rough Ride might not be received to universal acclaim
‘I remember getting a call from him before it came out
saying he’d heard there was stuff in the book
and me telling him basically to fuck off,’ Kimmage says
I was going to set out what was wrong with the sport
I naïvely thought that the public would see it for what it was
that the lads would see it for what it was
and Kimmage’s initial sample audience was his own family
none of Kimmage’s family or friends knew anything of his experiences of doping
Kimmage came to the belated epiphany that the driving force behind his cycling career had been a deep-seated desire to impress his father – ‘It had fuck all to do with wanting to win the Tour de France or winning everything
It had everything to do with pleasing him,’ he says – even though the equable Christy Kimmage was the very antithesis of a pushy parent
and offered his support in the most Irish way possible: he said nothing
‘My father had no clue I had doped until he opened the book and started reading
I’d never spoken to them about the decisions I’d made
And they read it and never commented on it at all to me
Extracts published in the Sunday Tribune created a stir but it was his appearance on the Late Late Show that brought the book and its author their greatest notoriety
spotted the paradox at the heart of the book: A Rough Ride showed the prevalence of doping in cycling and the seeming impossibility of being successful without it
yet there was no accusation that Kelly or Roche had doped
Kimmage refused to say yes and he refused to say no: ‘This is my story
and the campaign against Kimmage’s book was immediate and sustained
The following day’s Evening Press carried the banner headline
he gave an interview to L’Équipe in which he denounced the book
though Kimmage was grateful at least that the journalist
Roche wrote a column in the Irish Times reiterating his distaste for the book
‘I learned things in Paul’s book that I never knew,’ Roche wrote
in Roche’s inference in the same piece about Pedro Delgado’s positive test from the 1988 Tour
‘Two years ago Delgado was tested positive after taking a product used for wiping out the traces of hormones – well those hormones could be traced now,’ he wrote
In his Irish Times column during the 1988 Tour
‘I doubt very much whether Pedro was stupid enough to take any kind of hard drug,’ Roche wrote then
in a piece calling for a rather drastic show of solidarity from the peloton
‘Until there is some kind of secrecy in the test procedure
I think the riders should boycott the Tour’s medical controls.’)
Roche’s indignant and public response contrasted with Kelly and Earley’s radio silence on the matter
Although it wasn’t to be confused in any way with tacit support
Kimmage was grateful enough to thank them in the preface of the second edition
‘There was no contact with them at all,’ he says
‘That support was just the fact that they said nothing.’ Even now
I read textbooks and stuff like that,’ Earley says
‘I’m not saying there are more important things in life… I didn’t have feelings about it either way
Kelly limited himself to telling reporters that he would read the book before he commented on it
he professes not to have read it in its entirety
‘There was a lot of stuff in the book that was true and it came out later
Some of the stuff was maybe a little bit spiced up because he wanted to have a real good book
and that’s what I said in the beginning,’ Kelly says
‘But I didn’t really start picking out stuff and getting into the nitty gritty
It was Kimmage’s book and that was his version.’
Kelly was advised to hold his counsel by Frank Quinn
though it’s very likely that he would have arrived at the same conclusion under his own steam
“The journalists get paid to write and I get paid to ride the bike
‘I read the book and basically in these situations
Stephen took a different route to the one we took.’
Roche claims that he would not have responded so harshly to the book were it not for Kimmage’s appearance on the Late Late Show
when he refused to dismiss the possibility that Ireland’s first Tour winner had doped during his career
‘I understood that he couldn’t really get involved in the conversation and put one down and not the other one down
We all know that Kelly had a problem and I hadn’t had a problem,’ Roche says
‘But if he’s going to go on and knock one and not the other
Kimmage had heard pills rattling in Kelly’s pocket at Paris-Brussels in 1984 and witnessed him injecting himself a couple of years later
but in his time sharing a room with Roche at Fagor
they had never so much as discussed doping
‘He knew that I knew,’ Kimmage says when asked why they never spoke about the topic
what are you taking?” You made your own decisions
Kimmage was unwilling to draw attention to Kelly’s two positive tests in A Rough Ride or on the Late Late Show
A false equivalence would have been drawn with Roche
‘Kelly had already tested positive twice at that stage and Gay Byrne was saying to me
“Well what about the lads?” I could have said
Why are you surprised about this?”’ Kimmage says
then it means the shining fucking man here
it remained contentious within the confines of the Irish cycling community
when he was sent the newspaper cuttings in the mail
did Kimmage learn that an illustrious predecessor had already denounced cycling’s maladies in a strikingly similar fashion
In a series of ghostwritten articles in the People newspaper in 1966
Shay Elliott had spoken in detail of the use of syringes and doping products in cycling
‘What really pissed my father off was that I was being accused of having invented all of this by people he had raced with
seen it first-hand themselves,’ Kimmage says
Kimmage recalls sending a copy of the book
he harbours mild regrets that he hadn’t informed Roche
Kelly and Earley of its contents before publication
I should have sent a copy off to Kelly and Roche a month before it came out so they could have a read of it and be ready
That probably would have been fairer,’ he says
so I could have handled that a bit better.’ He smiles
at the idea of what might have happened had he shown Roche the manuscript any earlier than that
He’d have got the lawyers out to stop this
Although Roche didn’t stop A Rough Ride’s publication in Ireland
his L’Équipe interview had helped to disseminate a skewed synopsis of its contents in France
Kimmage had enjoyed some respite from the controversy while covering the 1990 World Cup in Italy
but he travelled onwards to report on the Tour for the Sunday Tribune filled with trepidation about how he would be received by his former RMO teammates
specifically his friends Colotti and Claveyrolat
‘That was really hard because Roche had fucked me with all of them
‘I remember I called Colotti on the night before the first stage
and I just felt it was pointless trying to explain myself to them
I didn’t put myself in a situation where I’d walk up to them and ask how they were getting on
My attitude was if they want to approach me and have a go
but I’m not going to go up and explain this
there was some admiration for Kimmage’s book within the cycling world
Patrick Valcke winced to himself as Roche denounced A Rough Ride
‘I wasn’t in agreement with Stephen because I thought what Paul did was courageous
and the second word is right,’ Valcke says
He wasn’t the same Stephen of 10 years previously
But it’s normal that when you’ve done 10 years as a pro
As Kimmage settled into life as a sportswriter over the following year
diplomatic channels with Roche opened once again
Roche’s Porsche on the motorway between Lille and Paris
Kelly and Earley for the remainder of their careers
availing of the privileges afforded to a former comrade
‘They behaved as if it had never happened and I wrote as if it had never happened
I enjoyed the access I got with them,’ says Kimmage
the speed with which Kimmage and Roche drew a line
under the Rough Ride falling-out is remarkable
Kimmage was building a new career and Roche was always eager for exposure in his home country
‘You could be riding Stephen’s wife in front of him as a journalist and then say
“Any chance of a quick word?” and such was his love of the microphone
he would go to the microphone,’ Kimmage says
