Press Reviews

The Peloton in the Press
Below are a few media review extracts for THE PELOTON:


Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (Germany), 02.04.2011
Love – Hate
The Peloton is a magnificient book. It presents men that love or hate their job, that describe or deny doping, talk about drudgery, or about beauty, about horrific crashes or homesickness. Or about persisting, even as a gregario, one that never wins a race. It is a mosaic that succeeds, through faces and tales, to put together the multiple personality of cycling again.
These portraits allow us a look at people without pose: exposed but never unmasked; tired or mistrustful; sad or defiant; injured or vulnerable. Being a cyclist is a job in a demimonde: you’re half respected and half outlawed.


El País (Spain), 27.02.2011
A race of legends and polemics
The cold and irresistible attraction of a clear vision, without shadows, without greys, without passion. Black and white. And a moral command: good guys and bad ones.

The inner perspective, intimate and fascinating, nerving from time to time, is also the words of the cyclists – a group composed of a multitude of characters and circumstances, not of robots, but exposed to a scrutiny and criticism few sportsmen are able to tolerate.


The Guardian (UK), 03.07.2011
Most of the cyclists in Timm Kölln's wonderful book of portraits look more like coal miners at the end of a shift than professional sportsmen. For six years, Kölln has hung around major races with a white backdrop and photographed riders just before they climb on their bikes or immediately after they clock off, caked in muck and grime after a long day in Flanders or weather-beaten and broken by the Alps. The 96 stark black-and-white images collected here are wonderfully expressive and are supplemented by brief interviews that never outstay their welcome.

The subjects include all of the big names of the last decade, minus Armstrong, but perhaps the most interesting are the lesser-known domestiques, the much-abused support riders finally given equal billing with the superstars of the sport. "You get used to not winning," admits Charlie Wegelius, a British rider who has been a professional since 2000 and never won a race. "Otherwise it’s like waiting for Christmas every day, and it never comes."


Sportweek (Italy), 28.05.2011
The art of fatigue
These portraits explain why cycling still maintains a unrivalled fascination.


Il Caffè (Switzerland), 05.06.2011
Faces of cycling
How best to articulate the romanticism of cycling in a world of 24-hour media coverage, of wall-to-wall technology and seemingly endless doping scandals?
In the most straightforward way of all; photography and brief, simple texts. It's a methodology which, if handled correctly and sensitively, is worth more than any number of words.
