Description
Jason Mitchell is used to enduring pain–a job requirement for a domestique on the amateur US national cycling team. When the team is decimated by food poisoning on a trip to Europe, Jason is left to fend for himself and finds himself engulfed in the cutthroat world of professional cycling. Amid the frenzy of a weeklong race whose victor will get a chance to race in the coveted Tour de France, he is torn between his feelings for Maria, his aloof Vespa-riding Luxembourg training coach, and Natalie, the flirtatious, sexy daughter of a prominent French cycling sponsor. In a foreign land, where cycling is a revered sport, Jason exerts as much effort to understand the complexities of life as he does climbing mountain passes.

Story
They say write what you know. I chose bicycling, Vespa's and women. Two out of three ain't bad!
I wanted to write a book for people that don't read "cycling books" to get a taste for this fascinating sport.
Testimonials
"More than anything, 'The Legend of Rosalind' is a romance. It is a romance between the characters, and the romance of a nation with a bicycle and the sport of cycling. The author's description of cycling and the training required to reach a truly competitive level was as interesting as the interactions with the other characters in the book. I think that surprised me the most. I never expected to enjoy reading about cycling, but I loved reading this book." - Amazon review
