Customer Reviews

Not bad.

I found this book quite interesting, althought here were a number of items that were obviously personal choice, and not what I would necessarily agree with. Although it is not the best book on the subject I have seen, it is a very comprehensive and valuable book for anyone starting out. It is still an interesting book to read, written by someone who is quite passionate about this subject, and if I ever get it back from my father, I will refer to it again.

Realy good

I do bicycle touring for years, but this book teach new ticks to an old dog
