Park Tool BBB-2 The Big Blue Book of Repair - 2nd Edition

by: C. Calvin Jones
This book is not encyclopedic in scope, no single volume could be, but it does seem to be a good reference for routine repairs of modern bikes. This much I expected. What I didn't expect is how concise it is in explaining the basics and how packed it is with useful background information. I especially appreciate that the author often explains the 'why' as well as the 'how'. I've been an amateur bike mechanic for over 40 years, but I started learning new things and useful techniques from the first few pages.

Ride Your Way Lean: The Ultimate Plan for Burning Fat and Getting Fit on a Bike

by: Selene Yeager, Bicycling Magazine Editors
As a "yet to read the book" member of this review, from what I've gathered of the suggested methods and subject matter of the book it's spot on for the person looking to get out there and loose the sedentary lifestyle without damage to themselves, with a direction of weight loss/control and overall well being that's associated with exercise.

I am a former walker, and a former Cat 1 USA Cycling road racer. Former walker due to non cycling injury/surgery. Now cycling these days to enjoy what it has to offer in the way of recreation, fitness maintenance and appreciating that world out there, all without impact of walking/jogging.

by: BikeSnobNYC
Got this book as a gift for my husband -- who is a bike commuter and frequent rider. He enjoyed it a lot. Got a kick out of the author poking fun at riders who take themselves a little too seriously.
