About the book:

About the author:
Amy Snyder is a retired management consultant turned Ironman triathlete and cyclist who knew she could never do a race as long as this one. But she was curious about how others can and why they do. So she followed the 2009 event from the West Coast to the East, and spent time with many of the contestants before and after. The story of this race changed her own thoughts and feelings about overcoming personal limitations. As she explains it, "Hell on Two Wheels is more than a story about a bike race. It's an allegory about self discovery and breaking through personal barriers that offers lessons for all of us, cyclists and non-cyclists alike."
