Description
The award-winning story of Tyler Hamilton, who takes us deep inside the secret world of professional cycling and his years as Lance Armstrong's teammate.
WINNER OF THE WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD
On a fateful night in 2009, Tyler Hamilton and Daniel Coyle met for dinner in Boulder, Colorado. Over the next eighteen months, Hamilton would tell Coyle his story, and his sport's story, in explosive detail, never sparing himself in the process. In a way, he became as obsessed with telling the truth as he had been with winning the Tour de France just a few years before. The truth would set Tyler free, but would also be the most damning indictment yet of teammates like Lance Armstrong.
The result of this determination is The Secret Race, a book that pulls back the curtain and takes us into the secret world of professional cycling like never before. A world populated by unbelievably driven—and some flawed—characters. A world where the competition used every means to get an edge, and the options were stark. A world where it often felt like there was no choice.

The Secret Race is acclaimed for its detailed and compelling account of doping in professional cycling, specifically during the Lance Armstrong era. The book, praised for its vivid storytelling and insider perspective, is noted for demystifying the doping culture with precision rather than theoretical speculation. Critics highlight it as a pivotal piece in understanding the sport's history and its culture of deception, with Tyler Hamilton’s personal confessions adding to its authenticity and impact.
