In 'The Racer: Life on the Road as a Pro Cyclist', David Millar offers us a unique insight into the mind of a professional cyclist during his last year before retirement. Over the course of a season on the World Tour, Millar puts us in touch with the sights, smells, and sounds of the sport--the barked instructions of a road captain in a sprint chain, the silence of a solo training ride. This book is about youth and age, fresh-faced excitement and hard-earned experience. It is a love letter to cycling.
