Book Reviews of Roadie: The Misunderstood World of a Bike Racer
Book Review: Fun ride cover to cover
Summary: 3 Stars
Sure, it's no literary masterpiece, but that's not what it's about. It's a good light hearted read for anyone who knows someone who rides a bike and wants to understand why bike riding consumes them.
An invaluable document for anyone who doesn't ride thinking of dating someone who does. It will either convince you to take up the sport or it will convince you to run a mile.
A great light-hearted read, full of insight and great humour.
