   Hi Lance,
   My name is Darren Egelhoff, i live in sydney and i’ve just finished reading your book, “Its not about the bike”.
   I was recently diagnosed last year on the 18th of December with Advanced Choriocarcinoma. I’ve just completed my first round of chemo, and its been tough, Physically, mentally and emotionally. Reading your book has been more than inspirational to me, its so comforting to know that im not alone in this battle and your book has given me a higher level of inner strength.
   I feel like im in the same headspace as you were in during the early stages of your chemo, and i just wanted to thankyou for sharing those experiences.
   Seeing that your down under, i thought i’d drop you a msg! (well i was going to anyway)

   Anyway, thankyou again for such and incredible tale of self determination. I really do love your descriptions of Austin TX and how serene the landscape is there : )
   Im taking up cycling once im in good enough shape for it and will find some beautiful countryside to ride through.

   All the best with your impending race Lance,

   Kind regards from a fellow brother,

   Darren
