23 Days in July – Lance Armstrong

23 Days in July – Lance Armstrong

By John Wilcockson

Excellent condition

I'm no Tour de France aficionado but '23 Days in July' had me hooked. Breakneck time trials and devastating roadside pile ups play out against a shady backdrop of 'doping' whispering campaigns. I learnt that the Tour is way more than a sport. It's an incredible drama of human interaction (sometimes a matter of life and death). Each team leader asks for total, selfless support from his team of 'domestiques'. And when anyone takes a personal risk it threatens the whole group as in those tightly packed 'peletons' one skid can cause a huge crash.

It's no wonder Lance Armstrong won. Grit and self-belief is just as essential as fitness and, having fought off cancer, Lance has buckets of both. But '23 Days' shows Lance is not some automaton. The author is friendly with Lance and other competitors and his insider interviews really reveal their human sides. He also conveys the nail-biting excitement of a race in which anything could happen and where the tension keeps on mounting for 23 whole days!
