Bike Snob: Systematically & Mercilessly Realigning the World of Cycling
Cycling is exploding in a good way and urbanites everywhere, from ironic hipsters to earth-conscious commuters, are taking to the bike like aquatic mammals to water . . .
An essential volume for anyone who knows, is, or wants to become a cyclist, Bike Snob is a wickedly funny rant about the world of bikes and their riders from blogger and cyclist BikeSnobNYC that offers a unique look at the ins and outs of cycling, from its history and hallmarks to its wide range of bizarre practitioners, sparring no one, not even himself, as he lampoons the missteps, pretensions, and absurdities of bike culture.
"Bike Snob should be lovingly gifted to all new cyclers, and forcefully smacked against the heads of all the jaded know-it-alls who take the sport way too seriously." -- Bill Strickland, Editor-at-Large of 'Bicycling'
