Overview:

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…
