'Allan Peiper was always a little bit different - an excellent rider who could sometimes pull off a remarkable win and an awesome competitor to have riding against you. However Allan's life was a lot more complicated than it seemed. His difficult childhood, his struggles when he came to Europe and the traumas he went though after he retired are brought to life in this remarkable biography.' Phil Liggett, Cycling broadcaster ITV; 'You won't read a more revealing, heart searching and poignant book about a professional cyclist than this one.' Luke Evans, Cycle Sport; 'They were called the Foreign Legion - that advance party of English-speaking riders in the early 1980s taking on the Continentals at their own game. It needed dedication and humour to survive, and Allan has both. This book will amuse you, but also provide a unique insight into the life of a pro bike rider.' David Duffield, British Eurosport
