The series focuses on Fergus; an ordinary boy with an extraordinary imagination.
All Fergus wants for his ninth birthday is a “Sullivan Swift”, a top-of-the-range bike that will ensure his success in the local time trials, but his mum and granddad can’t afford such an expensive present. Instead he inherits his dad’s old rusty bike, but when he heads out to test it at the park, he discovers there might be more to the bike than meets the eye. Sir Chris writes alongside Joanna Nadin, an award-winning author for children and teenagers and the books are fully illustrated throughout by Clare Elsom.
