The Secret Race by Tyler Hamilton
3.0

It's hard to say that it was honorable or brave for Tyler to write the inside story of pro cycling, because it seems fairly evident that he wouldn't have done so had he not been caught. However, once caught, he did make the choice to stand alone and reveal all & it is an extremely interesting look inside this secret world of nonchalant, rampant doping, and into the absolutely ruthless personality of Armstrong. A few quibbles -- some phrases did get over-used, and the repeated mention of red blood cells as "alive" irked me, but overall, an engaging and painfully honest look at pro cycling. I do feel sorry for Tyler.
