Translation: The Head of the Field. This outstanding film follows cycling star Eddy Merckx, seen here at the peak of his career, through the challenge of Europe's best races, from the World Championships to the Tour de France. A rare portrait of "the Babe Ruth of cycling". This video is an extraordinary document of human endurance and courage. 110 minutes.
Watch God, I mean Eddy Merckx, open up a serious can of whoop ass on the competition, set the world-hour record, make silly jokes about cakes, and crank out some serious RPMs in a superhuman roller workout.
