"At Speed My life in the fast lane"
Out on 7th Nov, just in time for Christmas... Presumably this means there'll also be a third volume later covering the end of his career.
Looks like they've used the same photographer from Millar's cover.

:shock:Living in the goldfish bowl, he has come under fire for his bombastic riding style and been portrayed as everything from an outlaw to a psychopath.

Outlaw to a psychopath? Probably a bit of both, he is a sprinter after all. He is also, according to David Millar, a bit OCD. Must be difficult being his swanny or mechanic, or possibly not if you do your job properly.

Poor old Friebe.
Yes I think of him every time I apply my "breaks" on my bike.

Says the man with Sagans profile pic.
Jeez, another Cav kiss-ars£. "Look at me ive 7000 posts so i must know what im talking about when it comes to the pros"
Idiot. :roll:
Do you want to try playing the ball instead of the man?
Even your attack on me makes no sense...

Never argue with an idiot - they will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
Each to their own indeed, but I quite liked Boy Racer and will probably give At Speed a go as well even it is a bit rough around the edges.

Turn the corner, rub my eyes and hope the world will last...
...I'll still read it as well because he is an awesome talent.

I did read boy racer which didnt give any real insight but the one thing I did enjoy and its something I have enjoyed listening when he has done interviews and documentary in the past is how he gives a run down of what happens goes on in the sprints. Explaining all the details of how it builds up etc. Like the stuff he did in that eurosport show explaining how Goss was leading him out and how it was different to having Renshaw. Its cool to hear stuff like that
I'll wait until Cav's career is over before I read any of his books
I agree, but how are they supposed to remember the minutia of a situation 10 years after the event? Unless, of course, they realise early on that they are going to be a superstar so write everything down for future publication, just in case.
Any suggestions as to a good book, want to read Charlie W for sure and have already read, ahem 12, cycling books this year, 13 if you include The Secret Race twice.
Think how stupid the average person is.......
half of them are even more stupid than you first thought.
What, like Wegelius did?
Priceless - Hope I always remember that line.

I have to agree with our man of many words RoT here. Cav can already look back on a great career. Cooperating with a good biographer such as Moore or Fothers would produce a first class read. A separate chapter on the Tour echelon stage alone please!

According to the Cound, he does (she may be writing it as we speak). You can bet it will come out just before next year's Tour, and we'll get episode 23 of the ongoing soap opera that is Wiggins-Froome.
