A Cycling Action Adventure Novel with a Twist of Humour...
CYCLOPATHIC TENDENCIES
Welcome to Masterton Training Facility...
Where breeding the perfect cycling athlete
Takes on a whole new meaning!
Picked as a hopeful contender for the upcoming Tour de France, young pro cyclist Mark Bradley makes his way to join his new team-mates at Masterton Training Facility, set on a delightful, sprawling manor estate in the English countryside.
Training with state-of-the-art facilities alongside other international riders, including his favourite cycling hero, Larry Legstrong, how could he possibly go wrong?
The outlook seems rosy... Until, that is, the team's manager, Hans, begins putting pressure on riders to join his 'performance enhancement' programme. And that can only mean one thing ? drugs.
But as Mark and team-mate Paul resist the pressure to conform, they discover that all is not as it seems. And it's only then that their troubles really begin. For, buried deep within the heart of Masterton Manor lies an unbelievable, dark secret.
In this world of conspiracy, breeding the perfect cycling athlete has taken on a whole new meaning ? and performance enhancing drugs are only the start. But once they discover the truth, will they ever be allowed to leave alive?
With a twist of humour, this easy-read novel is accessible to the cyclist and non-cyclist alike. Why not pick up a copy TODAY for some mystery, intrigue and adventure?
Rated PG-15 by the author, as there is some mild adult content.
FAUX REVIEWS by PSEUDO-CELEBRITIES
Here are just a few of the author's infamous 'faux reviews' of the spurious kind for Cyclopathic Tendencies...
A global conspiracy (ish), some kick-ass action and a bunch of bikes thrown in ? what more could you want? In fact, I think the screenwriters have missed a trick by not having any bike chases in my movies.

This book has got to be one of our favourite cycling novels ever! (Mind you, that could be because you're hard pushed to find any bike-related fiction around.)
CYCLING WEAKLY MAGAZINE
I read the book and, quite frankly, I'm not sure I could handle the truth.

Autorentext
Alannah Foley... aka The Pyjama Writer
Author of fantasy adventures, fun mysteries, travel tales, and other maverick titles that won't fall in line...
Raised in the UK, Alannah lived in her Aussie birthplace for five years in her twenties, where mozzies regularly used her for target practice. She managed to return to Old Blighty devoid of shark or snake bite, however, and currently lives in picturesque Cornwall with her cycling-obsessed partner.
She is an international book award finalist and multi-genre author best known for her series of fantasy adventures inspired by fairy tales and her mysteries starring laid-back Aussie Scott Chevalier.
Alannah has also written about her travel capers, both in a campervan and Down Under (not both together - yet!), and has a handful of other oddball titles to her name. Most of her work comes with a sprinkle of humour.
Outside of writing, she is the founder and head owl at Book Lover Merch, where she designs physical and digital goodies for book lovers to enjoy.
When she's not immersed in creative pursuits, she likes to hit the trails on her bike, take walks in nature, or go kayaking ? basically, anything that will get her butt out of the chair for a while that doesn't involve going to a sweaty old gym.
