Summer 1998 - the opening stages of Le Tour de France are relocated to Ireland. Belgian rider Dom Chabol (late 30s) has been one of the best “Domestiques” (support riders) on the Tour for the last 20 years. It’s a sacrificial role – setting pace, blocking wind, and providing support to enable the team’s sprinter to victory - winning is not an option. But Dom secretly harbours a desire to wear the yellow jersey - just once before his career is over. At the start of what will likely be his last Tour, Dom is unceremoniously dropped from the Team he has dedicated his life to. His best mate Sonny, the team masseur, fails to reassure him about his future. But a chance liaison with Lynn, a young Irish doctor, softens the blow, and Dom starts to accept - and even enjoy - the idea of civilian life. But as he gears up to go home and to face his estranged sister, a massive doping error knocks another teammate off the Tour and Dom is thrown back in the saddle…

I felt as if I was riding uphill for most of this film. The central character was hard to root for and dramatically, it was all over the place.

Like the Tour de France bicycle race, this has its uphill struggles but there are also some high points. An aging athlete struggles to stay ahead of the clichés but doesn't quite make it. Add to that an unnecessary romance and you have a film that has to show down while it goes around in circles. Fortunately, some fresh directing choices, a strong showing by lead Louis Talpe and an interesting subplot (that should've been the main plot, tbh) about the year drugging took down the Tour de France kept the film interesting, even for those of us allergic to sports.
