From the author of the cult favorite Pro Cycling on $10 a Day and Ask a Pro, the story of one man's quest to realize his childhood dream, and what happened when he actually did it.

Like countless other kids, Phil Gaimon grew up dreaming of being a professional athlete. But unlike countless other kids, he actually pulled it off. After years of amateur races, hard training, living out of a suitcase, and never taking "no" for an answer, he finally achieved his goal and signed a contract to race professionally on one of the best teams in the world.

Now, Gaimon pulls back the curtain on the WorldTour, cycling's highest level. He takes readers along for his seasons in Europe, covering everything from rabid, water-bottle-stealing Belgian fans, to contract renewals, to riding in poisonous smog, to making friends in a sport plagued by doping. Draft Animals reveals a story as much about bike racing as it is about the never-ending ladder of achieving goals, failure, and finding happiness if you land somewhere in-between.

Great wallet
I’ve tried several of these money clip wallets, after an older one I loved finally fell apart, and this one is much the best I’ve found. Great magnet (really clamps down on cash), room for 8-10 cards. Not too big, not too small. Quality. Very happy, may even buy another to put aside for when this one eventually goes.

Nice leather.
Size: One Size, Color: Black
It's nice. I'm using it. I would have liked a long zipper for extra security in the bill compartment, but this is good enough.
