Book Reviews of Bike for Life: How to Ride to 100
Book Review: Male Dominated
Summary: 2 Stars
The best title for this book should be, "Biking As a Lifestyle," not "Biking for Life." It is not concerned with long term biking so much as how to be the best kind of dude and where to compete. Much of the information is found in other cycling and exercise books. The chapter, "Rolling Relationships: Rules for Reconciling Significant Cycling and Significant Others" is where the authors show their colors and their testoserone levels. The general idea is that males rule cycling as a sport and as a way of life. Whatever they decide to do with their sporting life takes precedent over any personal relationship. Women are to be cajoled and bribed. To show their benevolence, males should consider giving women some significant role in their cycling world. Silly little boys!
There are other books with a balance approach to cycling and fitness. Give this a pass by.
