Greg LeMond, L'Americain: fresh-faced, prodigious newcomer. This is supposed to be his year. Bernard Hinault, The Badger: five-time winner of the Tour. He has pledged his support to his team mate, LeMond. The team is in cycling, so the world watches, stunned, as LeMond and Hinault's explosive rivalry plays out over three high-octane weeks.
Slaying the Badger: LeMond, Hinault and the Greater Ever Tour de France describes the explosive rivalry between the Greg LeMond, then a prodigious newcomer, and Bernard Hinault, by 1986 already a five-time winner of the Tour.

Though teammates in the powerful La Vie Claire squad, the two cyclists fought each other until LeMond’s final victory and Hinault’s consolation prize as the King of the Mountains. The book combines interviews and anecdotes with vivid writing based on thorough research.
