Publisher Description
As I wait for the starting gun, I know this: first lap, first hill, Coors Light is going to attack. We have to do eight circuits of a hard twenty-kin course with two 100-meter climbs, but they'll want to hammer right from the start. Typical day in bike-racing hell. The gun goes off, we start to roll, for a few seconds all you can hear is cleats snapping into pedals. Moab flashes through my mind, for no special reason except that I know Lydia's watching me.
