Average Rating: 
Rating: - best book I've read ever
I liked this book very much. The reason I chose this book was because I like watching the Tour De France and my dad wanted me to read more. The book is about Lance Armstrong's life through his child hood through his battle with cancer and through him winning the '99 tour. My favorite part of the book was when they talked about his's childhood.
Rating: - It's All About The Bike
This book chronicles the life of Lance Armstrong through a fatherless youth, a promising adolescence, a devastating disease, his 1st Tour win, and the birth of his son. It is well written and should be easily understandable even to someone that doesn't care at all about riding a bike. Probably the only criticism I have for this book (and this is true about most autobiographies) is that Lance seems to take particular joy in striking back at everyone he feels has wronged him in his life. So we are treated to stories of incompetent father figures, sponsors that gave him up for dead, and even revenge at high school classmates that dressed differently. Overall it's an incredible story and well worth reading. Despite the title of the book, I found that most of the story did revolve around Armstrong's cycling career (after all, who would read this book if Lance had survived cancer but given up cycling). It is an inspiring story that anyone can relate to, no matter what the hills are in your life.
Rating: - I reveled in reading Lance's story.
I'm a student from NYC Technical College. I study English as a second language and in this semester our teacher picked this book. < It's not about the bike> By: Lance Armstrong. I think she made a good choice for the class because some times we read together, we shared ideas, and we enjoyed reading this book. My opinion about Lance is that he is a perfect example for others with any obstacles in their lives. Lance fought against his cancer and emerged with victory. He won his dreams because he won the Tour de France. He had a second chance in his life and he was approaching this opportunity. I want to see him racing his bike again in a competition. Maybe I will read his second book if he writes another and follow his new life with his wife and his son. I encourage others to read this book based on real life and how he won the fight: " Lance vs cancer ".
