I've had the chance/privilege to read page proofs of the book, written by Jonathan Kennett. It's a great read -- beyond the world of road cycling -- as a story of new-migrant drive, sporting success in NZ and beyond, corruption and Euro amphetamine temptation in the age of giants such as Merckx ... Tabak's drive to win is incredible, and his story is moving. The book is head and shoulders above most other sports bios. There must be some room in your Xmas stocking for Tino Tabak: Dreams and Demons of a New Zealand Cycling Legend.

(Disclaimer: I have no financial interest in this book selling thousands

You lucky bugger! From what I know of the Kennett Bros' writing, and this particular subject, this book should be HUGE!

It would be really nice to see it get some international exposure too...

I had a quick flick through Simon's copy last Friday evening, and it looks like a superb read. Some great photos too. :thumbsup:

By the way, I think this thread title is disgraceful.

Agreed, it is a disgraceful thread title, his story is complex and he deserves better.

I put the title because that was the line that National Radio used.

The interview is at 8;30AM.

Are you a rational thinking being, independent of thought? Do you have to parrot the media and propagate their inane titillation? You could have just put Tino Tabak interview and we would have been there.

Who listens to National Radio these days?

Apart from the oldies when they eat there crumpets........ :lol:
