An amazing accomplishment
Phil Liggett MBE
The Midlife Cyclist was published in June 2021 and quickly became a number one best-seller in the US and UK.
Grow Old. Ride Fast. Don’t Die.
Time’s arrow traditionally plots an incremental path into declining strength and speed for all of us. But we are different to every other generation of cyclists in human history. An ever-growing number of us are determined to scale the highest peaks of elite physical fitness into middle-age and beyond. Can the emerging medical and scientific research help us achieve the holy triumvirate of speed and health with age?
