Reviews

"The "Whole Earth Catalog" of bicycle culture."
-- Stephen Bilenky

"Much like the mythological hero who has forgotten his gift, we are a generation that is remembering that we know how to ride bicycles. This book is a treasure-filled map for those who are hearing the call to take up their bike and ride again."
-- Ross Evans, founder/inventor of Xtracycle and Worldbike

"Amy Walker has that canny ability to thread the needle of safety, practicality, and looking mightily good on a bike. This book gives you some bright and clever new tools to experience the exceptional convenience a bike can bring, not to mention that big healthy smile we get riding!"
-- Gary Fisher
