3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting insight to the pro peloton, June 12, 2000
By Abel Gregory Soster (Galena, OH USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The book is a very quick read. I liked the behind the scenes life of a pro-bike mechanic. What I did not see was the real grit behind the public image. I think the author tried to convey what comprised his work while withholding what we all really want to hear about. "Who's jerk and why, who's a great guy and why?" If you want a more raw look at pro cycling consider Paul Kimmage's - Rough Ride.
