The Racer
Ireland will host the Tour de France's opening stages in summer 1998. After 20 years as one of the Tour's top "Domestiques," Belgian rider Dom Chabol (in his late 30s) is retiring from racing. With no other alternative than to sacrifice yourself to help your team's sprinter to victory, this role is one of selflessness. Dom, on the other hand, harbors a secret yearning to wear the yellow jersey one last time before he retires. It will be Dom's last Tour after being kicked out of the Team he has committed his life to. Team masseur Sonny, his closest friend, unable to provide him with any reassurances about the future of his career. Even so, a serendipitous encounter with the young Irish doctor, Lynn, helps to ease Dom's transition into civilian life. As he prepares to return home and confront his estranged sister, a catastrophic doping error removes another teammate from the Tour, and Dom is forced to go back on the bike again...
