Tour de Lance, published in 2010 in hardcover and in 2011 in paperback, depicts Lance Armstrong’s return to professional cycling and subsequent attempt to win the Tour de France in 2009. The account was deemed “polarizing,” in an Associated Press review, which explained that, “Fans believe he’s capable of performing miracles on two wheels while detractors are certain he doped his way to seven consecutive victories in the world’s toughest bike race. This book isn’t likely to sway either side.” Texas Monthly noted that “The 45-year-old Strickland tries to be objective; he describes the Armstrong he met in 1994 as “an ignorant, gutsy, mouthy, and unpredictable kid.” But he also admits that he once owned an autographed Lance Armstrong lunchbox. Still, Strickland’s breezy style and insider knowledge produce high drama, low humor (who knew Tour riders sometimes stop en masse for a communal “arrêt pipi”), and a mind-boggling primer on pro cycling’s Machiavellian gamesmanship (though the book was printed too early to include a discussion of the doping accusations against Armstrong that surfaced last month).” In a starred review, Booklist termed the book, “An irresistible account of a story that needed telling.” Daniel Coyle, author of Lance Armstrong’s War, said, “Talent, willpower, and smarts to burn—the words apply equally well to Bill Strickland and his famous subject. Tour de Lance is sure to be the definitive inside account of one of the great sporting comebacks of all time.”
“The Escape,” the December, 2011, edition of his monthly Bicycling magazine column The Pursuit, was named a Notable story by The Best American Sports Writing.

His most critically praised book, Ten Points, was published in 2007. A chronicle of how his cycling experiences during the 2004 amateur racing season helped him come to terms with an abusive childhood, it earned a starred review from Publishers Weekly, was deemed “uncomfortable but ultimately satisfying” by Kirkus Reviews, and was graded as an A- by Entertainment Weekly. Writing for Booklist, the reviewer David Pitt said: “The sports-as-spiritual-therapy theme has been explored plenty of times, and perhaps Strickland doesn’t offer any blindingly new revelations, but his book is honest, and he doesn’t waste our time with banal observations or facile psychologizing. He is also a very talented writer, and readers should brace themselves for some very moving — and also some rather unsettling — passages.”
