Some people enjoy the details. It lets you immerse yourself momentarily in bike racing culture which is incredibly interesting.
After reading Lord of the Rings:
"Well, that was a huge waste of words."
> Bilbo gives long lost evil ring to son Frodo
> Frodo goes on a long journey with friends to destroy the ring
> A few friends die; a lot of enemies die
> Frodo can't destroy the ring in the moment of truth because it has corrupted him
> It gets destroyed anyway
