La Race Across America (RAAM) es una carrera ciclista como ninguna. A diferencia de su homólogo más famoso, el Tour de Francia, los ciclistas de la RAAM no compiten por etapas distribuidas en varias semanas. Una vez que se dispara el pistoletazo de salida en la costa del Pacífico, el primer corredor que logra completar los 4.800 kilómetros del recorrido y alcanzar Annapolis, Maryland (EE.UU.), es el vencedor. La mayoría de los participantes consiguen dormir entre dos y tres horas cada día, mientras que los líderes se conforman con 90 minutos o incluso menos. Infierno sobre dos ruedas es un relato emocionante y extraordinariamente detallado del evento deportivo más increíble del que jamás se haya oído hablar. La acción es apasionante, y la historia implica a los propios corredores. ¿Quiénes son estas personas? ¿Qué les impulsa a perseverar ante tan espeluznante sufrimiento?Escrito desde la perspectiva de estos excepcionales deportistas, esta obra es una alegoría inolvidable sobre la superación de las limitaciones personales, el autodescubrimiento y la capacidad del espíritu humano.
