The first full autobiography of Irish cycling legend Stephen Roche, who in 1987 defied all odds to win cycling's 'triple crown'
Stephen Roche was born in Dundrum, Dublin, Ireland. As a road racing cyclist, over the course of 13 years, he recorded 58 professional career wins, including the Tour de France, the Giro d'Italia and the World Road Racing Championship, all of which he won in 1987. Since retiring Stephen has set up and built Stephen Roche Cycling Holidays and Training Camps, based in Majorca and worked as a commentator for Eurosport. Born to Ride is his first full autobiography.
Fascinating…a compelling read

One of the most riveting sporting biographies I've read for
ages

While most people focus on his famous year in 1987, it's often
forgotten just how precocious a cyclist Roche was early on in his
career…an entertaining read
*Bike Radar*
The intimacy and tone of a fireside chat – possibly lubricated with
a generous nightcap

Highly recommended
