Description
Everything you need to know to purchase, maintain, and ride a bike for recreation, commuting, competition, travel, and beyond! From the bike world’s most beloved and trusted advocate.
Eben Weiss, aka Bike Snob NYC, is the voice of cyclists everywhere. Through his popular blog he has been informing, entertaining, and critiquing the bike-riding community since 2007. With his latest book, The Ultimate Bicycle Owner’s Manual, Weiss makes his vast experience and practical advice available to bike “newbies” and veterans alike. Chapters cover Obtaining a Bike, Understanding Your Bike, Maintaining Your Bike, Operating Your Bike, Off-Road Riding, Coexisting with Drivers, Competitive Cycling, Bike Travel, Cycling with Kids, and What the Future Holds for Bikes in our Communities. Weiss’s humorous, down-to-earth style takes all the mystery and intimidation out of cycling and will inspire even the most hesitant couch potato to get out and ride!
Breakfast Puppies Notes: NPC fully endorses this book as a fantastic no-bullshit introduction to all things bicycle-related. If you’re a noob to the cycle and are the kind of person who likes reading books on new topics, this is a great place to start.
