Book Review - Its not about the bike by Lance Armstrong


Just read it.

His struggle, his confidence, his failures, his thoughts, his triumphs..

its all very, very inspiring.

surely, the story of legends.

my favourite quote from the book:

"...patience is not a sign of weakness..."

its just a coincidence that it happened..

Isn't he accused of doping???(though not yet proved conclusively??) Just like the current tainted champion Floyd Landis ... yes, coming back and winning after recovering from cancer is the stuff of legends, but to do that under the cloud of drugs, hmmm, thats a different matter altogether, what say??

mitti, he is cleared of drug accusations. he has talked about it in his book. He was tested every single day, before and after the race and was also suspected if he took drugs unknowingly as a part of medicines during cancer..

and Tour de France has been always plagued with drug abuse for a long time now..

every winner is treated with a pinch of salt..
