Book Report

I’ve just finished reading another couple of autobiographies. The first was “Pretty good for a girl” by Tina Basich and the second was “It’s not about the bike : My journey back to life” by Lance Armstrong.

Both are about sporting personalities, Tina Basich is a snowboarder who was one of the pioneers of female snowboarding and successful too having won many events including the Big Air competition at the 1998 Winter X Games, Lance Armstrong is a very successful cyclist having won the Tour de France 5 times despite (or maybe because of) fighting through a major illness.

Both were well written, both had poignant moments, both of them are inspiring. I might add “Every Second Counts” by Lance Armstrong to my wish list.
