Book Reviews of We Might As Well Win: On the Road to Success with the Mastermind Behind a Record-Setting Eight Tour de France Victories

Book Review: this is a great read; obssession with road cycling not required
Summary: 4 Stars

I read this book incredibly quickly. It is well written and interesting and takes a whole new tack on the lance armstrong years. I enjoyed the team car/ manager's eye view of the discovery team and Bruyneel's recollection of the minute strategies and adaptability that let discovery dominate the tour de france. The book is well balanced, insightful and offers glimpses into areas of professional cycling not really covered elsewhere. Basic functional explanations make this book accessible to non cycling obsessives without slowing down more avid supporters.
