It's Not About the Bike

I've been reading, the Lance Armstrong book 'It's Not About the Bike', or I should really say consuming it as its been impossible to put down.

I have wanted to read this for some time now, not for what might be the obvious reason of Lance being a world-class cyclist, and for those who know me, know im pretty keen on cycling. Mainly though its been due to the fact that its such an inspiring story of a man who always had to fight to get what he wants and a lot of the time, comes out winning. Whether thats growing up with no father or being diagnosed with testicular cancer which in turn leads to having brain surgery, following which going on to compete in the Tour De France and win it, 7 consecutive times.

Definitely recommend this if you're looking for a great read, but also an uplifting and beautifully told story too.

That's all for now, i've got to get out on the bike ;)
