Praise for PRO CYCLING ON $10 A DAY:

"Much of Pro Cycling on $10 a Day spins as pure pleasure-an inside account of what it's really like to race for a living and occasionally be among the sport's elite...The best parts read like an unpretentious insider's diary, full of the kind of wisecracks, gossip and advice traded on memorable long rides." - Wall Street Journal

"At a time when pro cycling has struggled with its image, Phil Gaimon has emerged as a refreshing voice from the peloton - intelligent, humorous, articulate, and above all, transparent. As a college-educated latecomer to the sport, as an outsider who struggled to be given a chance, and as someone with the perspective to laugh at the absurdity of being paid to ride a bicycle for a living, Gaimon's insights into the pro cycling world resonate with a wide audience. His self-effacing humor, commitment to clean sport, and extraordinary talent have made him a bit of an everyman hero within pro cycling - a rider you want to hear from, and know more about, win or lose." - Velo magazine

"In this age of tell-all memoirs from cyclists popped for doping, Pro Cycling on $10 a Day by Phil Gaimon is a refreshing change...It's a witty, revealing look at cycling that will make you want to quit your job and start training for the Tour." - Bicycling magazine
