Seven time Tour de France winner and cancer survivor, Lance Armstrong was in Vancouver this past weekend for the BC Cancer Foundation Tour of Courage, cancer fund raiser. Not only is he known as one of the world’s most incredible atheletes, but also as a leader and tireless advocate for the fight against cancer.

He led a community fundraising ride for recreational cyclists young and old in Greater Vancouver and participated in a challenge ride for a small group of major donors.

A while back I read both his books, but was really engrossed with the first one, named, “It’s not About the Bike - My Journey Back to Life”. It’s a most inspiring book, and well worth the read.
