Former professional bicyclist Johan Bruyneel takes you on an exhilarating behind-the-scenes tour of the road to victory.
In 1998, Johan Bruyneel looked Lance Armstrong in the eye and said, "Look, if we’re going to ride the Tour, we might as well win." In that powerful phrase a dynasty was born. We Might as Well Win reveals the planning, training, strategy, and tactics that led to a record seven Tour de France victories for Bruyneel with Armstrong, an eighth with Alberto Contador, his eleventh grand tour victory at the Giro d’Italia, and the exclusion of his team Astana from the 2008 Tour de France. Through thrilling stories of his own racing wins and those of the cyclists he has guided during his extraordinary career, Bruyneel shows what it takes to succeed, both on and off the bike.
Johan Bruyneel was team director from 1999 to 2007 for the US Postal Service Pro Cycling Team (later the Discovery Channel Pro Cycling team). He was general manager of the Astana Cycling Team, with whom Lance Armstrong made his comeback in 2009, and is now directeur sportif of Team RadioShack. Bill Strickland is executive editor of Bicycling, the world's leading cycling magazine.
