Lee Craigie: Other Ways to Win
Reading extracts from her new book join Lee Craigie as she discusses identity, loss, success, freedom, and our connection to the natural world with the Royal Scottish Geographical Society.
About Lee Craigie: Other Ways to Win
Reading carefully selected extracts from her new book, Other Ways to Win, Lee Craigie takes us on a candid journey behind the scenes, exploring topics such as identity, loss, success, freedom, and our connection to the natural world. She takes us on a 550-mile non-stop mountain bike time trial around the Scottish Highlands and back to a youth project in Inverness, before journeying from Canada to Mexico then returning to the wild imaginings of an eight-year-old exploring her local woods. This is not just a book about bike riding; it is a competitive cyclist’s reflections on success.
