Cycling in Literature: Ernest Hemingway mentioned the Tour of the Basque Country
in his first major novel, "The Sun Also Rises" (1926). In the story, which
takes place in Paris, San Sebastian and Pamplona, Hemingway wrote,
"There was a bicycle-race on, the Tour du Pays Basque,
and the riders were stopping that night in San Sebastian.
In the dining-room, at one side, there was a long table
of bicycle-riders, eating with their trainers and managers.
They were all French and Belgians, and paid close attention
to their meal, but they were having a good time.....
The next morning at five o'clock the race resumed with
the last lap, San Sebastian-Bilbao. The bicycle-riders drank
much wine and were burned and browned by the sun.
They did not take the race seriously except among themselves."
