Descent: my epic fall from cycling superstardom to doping dead end
Description
"At age 20, Thomas Dekker was earning $150,000 a year -- as an amateur bike racer. The next year, he turned pro and was soon swimming in more than $1 million as he established his place on one of Europe's wealthiest superteams. As quickly as he rose, though, Dekker found himself drowning in a corrupting shower of blood bags, drugs, prostitutes, and money, and cracking under the pressure to perform at a super-human level. In this fast-paced, tell-all memoir, Dekker delivers a page-turning tear through one man's rise, fall, and redemption during cycling's EPO-fueled boom years." -- From back cover.
