Cycling is exploding - in a good way. Urbanites everywhere, from ironic hipsters to earth-conscious commuters, are taking to the bike like aquatic mammals to water. BikeSnobNYC - cycling's most prolific, well-known, hilarious, and anonymous blogger - brings a fresh and humorous perspective to the most important vehicle to hit personal transportation since the horse. Bike Snob treats readers to a laugh-out-loud rant and rave about the world of bikes and their riders, and offers a unique look at the ins and outs of cycling, from its history and hallmarks to its wide range of bizarre practitioners. Throughout, the author lampoons the missteps, pretensions, and absurdities of bike culture while maintaining a contagious enthusiasm for cycling itself. Bike Snob is an essential volume for anyone who knows, is, or wants to become a cyclist.
Yes, it's a blog book. But it's nicely designed, an easy read, and not a printed collection of posts. If you like the Snob's writing, you'll like this. ( )
Very light hearted but still a lot of practical good advice, enough for experienced cyclists and new cyclists both. A bit dated, I imagine... do people still ride those narrow handlebar no brake fixies? Maybe. I have never been much around such hipster environments. Anyway there is a lot of stupid humor but it never really gets in the ways and it works well to break up the monotony of facts. The book doesn't pretend to be more than it is. Very nicely done. ( )
