THIS IS CHRIS FROOME IN HIS OWN WORDS.
'Engaging, vividly evoked'Mail on Sunday, Books of the Year
'What Chris has done is phenomenal'Sir Chris Hoy
Growing up in Kenya, biking down mile after mile of dusty road, and staying in a humble tin hut, he developed a fierce passion and determination to win.
The road to Europe was long, gruelling and filled with setbacks - but it prepared him for teamwork as a domestique and then the leap to leader of Team Sky and a shot at winning the Tour de France. InThe Climb,written with the renowned investigative reporter David Walsh, he vividly recounts the struggles, the rivalries, the battles, the comebacks. Finally he traces his path to triumph and his mission to help clean up cycling.
Inspiring and exhilarating, it will leave you ready to face your own challenges in life, whatever they may be.

Notă biografică
Chris
Froome
was
born
in
Nairobi
to
British
parents.
He
was
educated
and
raised
in
South
Africa
and
now
races
for
Team
GB
and
Team
Sky.
He
is
undoubtedly
the
finest
Grand
Tour
cyclist
of
his
generation
and
is
the
first
man
since
Bernad
Hinault
to
hold
all
three
Grand
Tours

the
same
time.
His
escape
on
theColle
delle
Finestreduring
Stage
19
of
the
2018
Giro
D'Italia,
that
secured
him
the
Maglia
Rosa,
was
roundly
considered
one
of
the
most
daring
attacks
in
modern
cycling
history.
Recenzii
In
this
engaging
memoir,
Froome
recalls
his
childhood
in
Nairobi,
gives
a
vividly
evoked
account
of
his
victory
and
doesn't
attempt
to
gloss
over
the
rivalry
between
the
two
Team
Sky
riders
Hard to beat for a top pro's perspective
Froome's story is an intriguing one
A brutally tough upbringing
The key to (Chris's) success is his mental resilience. He might look like an unlikely strong man at first glance, but I wouldn't let that fool you. Beneath the surface there is a real fighter. He's a tough guy
Chris Froome is an absolutely phenominal athlete. It blows my mind how incredible his performances have been
Even though we don't see each other so much anymore he has lived in my dreams. He (was) wearing the yellow jersey every day and I almost felt I was wearing it myself
Just a few years ago we did not have anyone who could podium, but now we have two cyclists who can win the Tour in consecutive years. It is a phenomenal achievement and what Chris has done is phenomenal
