Fergus Hamilton gets a rusty old bike for his ninth birthday from his mum and granddad. It's not the flashy Sullivan Swift he'd longed for, but when it's all cleaned up and he takes it for a test run, he discovers it’s magic. Fergus and his dog, Chimp, are transported to Nevermore, a land where cycling is banned by the King.
He meets Princess Lily, has an amazing adventure bunny-hopping on his bike over the Swamp of Certain Death and outwitting the Knights of No-Nonsense and their Hounds of Horribleness, and then lands back in the real world with a bump.
Fergus still has to complete the time trial to join the local cycling team though – can Grandpa Herc and his best friend Daisy help him realise that he doesn't need magic to succeed, and that hard work, a bit of patience and some help from his friends can do the trick?
