Customer Reviews

Thoroughly enjoyed this book!

This book explains many aspects of bicycling that I knew little about. Everything from choosing the correct bike for your body-type, to the correct way to ride and race on a velodrome (which I need to work on! lol). Shawn Rohrbach also goes into an important part of bicycling for me which is exercising and eating right. I enjoyed hearing about how others eat while training and racing. Overall I am convinced that this is a terrific book for any bicyclist from the newer riders to the veteran riders who may be thinking of opening up their own bicycle shop.

I found this book very rewarding and it renewed my love for bicycling. You are alone and have time to think and regroup. You find that there is a purpose in life just waiting to be explored.
