It's a great read, an honest account of the pre-EPO Roche/Kelly era when the top riders were the best because they were the best attackers. Read in conjunction with David Millar's book it gives a great insight into how the use of EPO really destroyed cycling from the mid 90's onwards
Would agree with all that I've just returned it to the bunclody library if anyone is interested
A very good under used underappreciated service we all have for free

Just finished Jim Stynes "My Journey".....its not really a sports book, but the story of a sports man living with cancer....if nothing else it will inspire you, to live for the moment..and get your ass on that bike and do those challanges and spins you just dream about..life is too short. If anyone wants it, its here for the borrowing x

Search every library in the country for books: http://www.borrowbooks.ie/
I've just put in an inter library loan request from Dublin library for Sean Kelly's two biographies - very easy to do.

I just finished Kelly's latest one - Hunger - excellent read

Currently reading Charlie Wegelius' account of life as a domestique - also excellent

Unfotunately though they're both on my kindle..
