book "It's Not About the Bike" people
around the world have found inspiration in the story of Lance Armstrong - a
world-class athlete nearly struck down by cancer, only to recover and win the
gruelling Tour de France bicycle race in spectacular style. The actions
recounted in the book will melt the most hard-bitten souls: a cancer foundation
and benefit bike ride, his astonishing commitment to training, and loyalty to
the people that never gave up on him. Armstrong is a thoroughgoing Texan jock,
and the changes brought to his life by his illness are startling and
powerful. |
