Cycling's Modern Era from LeMond to Armstrong

Immersed in cycling since 1978, Samuel Abt’s distinctive voice has told the stories of countless champions and decisive turning points in the most famous international races. In this collection of articles originally written for The New York Times and the International Herald Tribune, Abt weaves together races and personalities spanning three decades of cycling, culminating with the retirement of Lance Armstrong following the 2005 Tour de France.

Up the Road is a compendium of easily digested stories that will delight both cycling buffs and newer fans of the sport. This collection of Abt’s work is unique and not a duplication of his first collection, Off to the Races. Includes a color photo section featuring the most prominent riders of the modern era.

Hardcover with jacket. 16-page photo section by Graham Watson.
