The Yellow Jersey

By: Grayson Ford

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Jet, one of the top professional cyclists in the world, races not only for victory but for survival. Raised in foster homes and haunted by a turbulent childhood, Jet channels his anger and pain into cycling, becoming the General Classification leader for Team Jumbo Pancake. With the Tour de France just weeks away, Jet is on the verge of claiming cycling’s most coveted prize: the yellow jersey.

But his greatest rival, Franco, a ruthless and determined rider from Team Fazolis, stands in his way. Franco, known for his willingness to cross lines for victory, has already beaten Jet once before. As the race begins, Jet finds himself not only battling Franco on the mountains but also confronting a hidden enemy within—panic attacks triggered by his unresolved trauma.

Reluctantly, Jet turns to Dr. Suzanne Hill, a psychotherapist brought in by his team. Through their sessions, Jet begins to unravel the demons that have fueled him for so long. As the Tour unfolds, and with the finish line in sight, Jet must decide whether to keep running from his past or find a new reason to push through the pain.

"The Yellow Jersey" is a story of resilience, mental strength, and the ultimate pursuit of both victory and inner peace. In the final race, Jet must not only defeat Franco but also gain the most elusive prize of all—a reason to live beyond the bike.
