This week I’ve been reading Lance Armstrong‘s autobiography – It’s Not About the Bike: My Journey Back to Life.
Yes, I know it was published in 2000. You’d think that a cycling fan such as myself would have read it by now, but I never got round to it.
However, I can strongly recommend the book. As the title suggests, it’s not about about cycling (although cycling is mentioned a lot, naturally). This book is about beating cancer and it really is an inspirational piece.
It’s also particularly important to me as I inherited it recently from my grandfather – a massive cycling fan and keen cyclist who died from cancer last year.
