THE MAKINGS OF A WORLD CHAMPION

Author: Steele Bishop

Steele Bishop was a youngster with a dream who rode a long and tough road to becoming a world champion cyclist.

An Olympian at 19, he retired at 21 – only to return to racing and eventually become world champion at 30. The individual pursuit is a race where you break or are broken. To win the title is a test of both physical and mental strength. For more than 30 years, his approach to the preparation and competition has inspired both elite and recreational cyclists – and now for the first time Steele shares his unique Australian Story. From country boy to world champion, the story of Steel Bishop will inspire sportspeople, business leaders and a whole generation to follow.
