I learned alot about big-time cycling. Recommended. Yeah, what he did was wrong, but he understood that it was what was required. Either do it, or go home. He had to put any morality to the side. I laugh at the moral perfectionists. Do these people live there lives at a high moral level? Consider a manager in a corporation. He's told to layoff people to prop up quarterly profits for the benefit of bonuses for the few. Is doping to win a race any worse than ruining people's lives for the sake of a few bonuses? The manager has to make a decision...do it, or get another job.

After reading this book I am left with the conclusion that Lance Armstrong is a sociopath and Tyler Hamilton is a sheep, a follower and a simpleton. The message of his book? "The truth will set you free." Profound, right? Meanwhile, he expresses little to no remorse or guilt as he details years of lying, cheating and using PEDs. He even has the nerve to say he was victimized by the public after getting busted because they called him a liar, cheat and doper. Victim? Hardly. Hero for telling the truth? No way.

A must read, couldn't put this book down until it was finished, more intrigue than a spy novel.

Interesting read, wish some of the other books were available as it would be nice to get an alternate opinion of Lance

A very fast read that details the life of a professional rider... You will like this book!

A must read for bike racing fans. A riveting story.

Riveting exposé of the cheating, lies and PEDs usage by competitive cyclists. Lance Armstrong fans will want to avoid it as it will blow the lid off any innocence you formerly believed that he raced clean and beat drug cheats through working harder than others, good nutrition and luck, hah hah. Lance was the flagbearer for his teams to use and abuse PEDs including cortisone, testosterone, EPO and blood doping. Who would've thought that perhaps his abuse of cortisone caused his testicular cancer? Many have vilified Tyler Hamilton for this book and for testifying against Lance Armstrong but he had no personal vendetta towards LA. His ex-wife sure did though! And Sheryl Crow was likely one of the whistleblowers that hurt Armstrong's cause. Imagine that!

Read this if you have any interest in pro cycling or doping in sports.

This book was riveting, I couldn't put it down. I'm not a cycling fan per se but interested in the Tour de France in general and Lance Armstrong as a sports celebrity, LIveStrong, etc. So I was curious about the doping allegations- it's all here and it's pretty shocking.

This is a must read for any cycling fans. This depicts the professional cycling culture throughout the Armstrong era. It's quite the tell-all book with insider information and stories.
