How to spend a couple of hours

With a little time on my hands over the festive period I managed to read a couple of books. So between work and training throw an eye over these.


French Revolutions by Tim Moore
Newspaper writer and self-confessed slacker, Moore is drawn to and reflect on what is the Tour De France. Purchasing a road-bike and fitting it with panniers Moore sets out to ride the TDF course, all 3630km touring style. Highly descriptive, with hilarious observations of pro-cycling, cycling culture and self discovery French Revolutions is a great read.



Bank Robbery for Beginners by Anthony Prince
Both Prince and his mate were from Byron Bay, on a working holiday in the Rocky Mountains, USA. Ill fated decisions lead both these boys directly to a serious turn of events. Portrayed as "Dumb and Dumber" by the US media you follow the raw, incredible and life changing experience through some of America's most aggressive prisons. With an easy reading style Bank Robbery for Beginners is a must read.


Both books are highly entertaining, I found them perfect for my recovery and down time.
