Henry, Jessie, Violet, Benny, their cousin Soo Lee, and their grandfather all decide to participate in a bicycle race to save Eagle Mountain. They're all excited about the race, but the day before the race starts, Henry can't seem to find his bike. When he does, it's trashed. The Aldens take it to Greenfield Wheels to see if it can be fixed. It can, but not before the race. So Benny and Henry ride a tandem instead. But when the race starts, everything seems to go wrong. At the first water stop, all of the water in one of the trucks has leaked out of the jugs onto the floor of the truck. Jessie, Violet, and Soo Lee find fake signs that are leading cyclists the wrong way, someone pours glue in the lock of one of the food cabinets, and a whole row of tents collapse, all on the first day! All of these problems lead to one conclusion: Sabotage!The Great Bicycle Race Mystery is full of clues, suspects, and even a stakeout. It's one of those books that has one clue that reveals the entire solution to the mystery, with a little thinking. If you keep your eyes open, you might even solve the mystery before the Aldens do.
