Summary/Abstract: The bicycle becomes the theme of two books reviewed by Maryla Zielińska, which have one thing in common: a love of the two wheels. The first one is the memoir of a bicycle journey written post factum by Piotr Cieplak. Zielińska notices, that the description of the voyage in O niewiedzy w praktyce, czyli droga do Portugalii (Ignorance in Practice, or the Road to Portugal, Fundacja Teatr Nie-Taki, Wrocław 2014) is merely a pretext for Cieplak's existential reflections and reevaluations. The second book reviewed here, Jakub Papuczys' Tour de France jako przedstawienie kulturowe (The Tour de France as a Cultural Performance, Wydawnictwo UJ, Kraków 2015) is, according to he author, an interesting proposal, analysing and interpreting the bicycle race through the focus of performance studies, which allows to understand the phenomenon of the Tour de France.
