Trade ReviewFascinating…a compelling read * Cycling Shorts *
One of the most riveting sporting biographies I've read for ages * Herald *
While most people focus on his famous year in 1987, it's often forgotten just how precocious a cyclist Roche was early on in his career…an entertaining read -- John Whitney * Bike Radar *
The intimacy and tone of a fireside chat – possibly lubricated with a generous nightcap -- Daniel Friebe * Outdoor Fitness *
Highly recommended * Cycling World *
