Overview

As at home in a jersey pocket or on a workshop bench, The Racing Line is a beautifully designed and produced, hardcover compilation of some 200 quotes, sayings, one-liners, retorts and reflections made by wheelmen and wheelwomen across the decades. The bicycle and its ride have moved all, from presidents and philosophers to `Il Campionissimo' and Cavendish. Be inspired by their obsessions, their studied observations, their infectious optimism and, of course, utter despair. Life is like riding a bicycle. In order to keep your balance, you must keep moving. - Albert Einstein Sometimes, when we train, we simply have to go out to meet the Man with the Hammer - Laurent Fignon It's a little like wrestling with a gorilla, you don't quit when you are tired you quit when the gorilla is tired - Fausto Coppi Think of bicycles as ridable art that can just about save the world. Grant Petersen, bicycle designer When my legs hurt, I say: Shut up legs! Do what I tell you to do! - Jens Voigt
