  1. Can anyone recommend any good cycling books, more related to storytelling as opposed to bike maintainence or trail guides

    Already read:

    North Wind in Your Spokes

    Immortal Class

    Miles From Nowhere

    Downhill............Marla Streb

    Tales from the Bike Shop

    It's Not About the Bike

    Heft on Wheels

    Metal Cowboy

    various books on the history of mountain biking...........Birth of Dirt....etc.

  2. Cold Beer & Crocodiles: A Bicycle Journey Into Australia, by Roff Smith is a very good read

  3. 'The Official Tour De France Centennial 1903-2003.' Everything you ever wanted to know.

  4. Rough Ride, Paul Kimmage
    Flying Scotsman, Graham OBree
    French Revolutions, Tim Moore
    Mr Tom, Chris Sidwells

    Also I enjoyed reading the autobiographies of Reg Harris and Beryl Burton, "Two Wheels to the Top" and "Personal Best" I think they were called.

    This sounds like what I'm looking for, picked it up on ebay for 7 bucks shipped.

    The Flying Scotsman interests me as well, thanks for the recommendations.

  6. Another vote for french revolutions
