A Woman's Guide to Cycling

Summary: Weenie No More
Review: I bought this book soon after I bought the first bike I've owned and ridden in 16+ years. Alot has changed since then, including the whole macho-ization of the sport. It was kinda scarey getting started. But this book explains things well, is spiced with nice, believable stories about people's biking experiences and it has a sense of humor -- something really necessary if you're gonna saddle up and get out there on the road with all the yahoos and gonzos. I especially liked the advice on essential clothing. Certain items really WILL make your rides more pleasant. (And I always thought 'bike clothes' were an affectation!)Weaver really loves her sport and it shows -- she wants to win converts and she's got me hooked. The streets of Dallas will never be the same, now!!
