Review: David Millar is one of my sporting heroes so my review is very probably biased. However he has a way of getting his story across that speaks directly to the reader as a human being and not just a cycling or sports fan. After half an hour he had me laughing out loud and almost reduced to tears , which is a bit awkward when commuting on the West Coast Main Line. The world of a elite sportsman can sometimes seem far removed from the fan or man in the street, but the author draws you in using everyday language and emotions that we can all understand. This is not so much a sports book as the tale of one man coming to terms with his mortality and where he stands at the crossroads in his life. Good luck Millartime. I'm sure that you'll be a success as a broadcaster, ambassador for cycling and most importantly husband and dad.
