Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A visual celebration of the beauty and lure of bicycle culture by renowned cycling journalist Peter Flax.Live to Rideis an ode to cycling from one of the world's most respected cycling journalists.

A bicycle can also transport you to an entirely different mindset, a place where you can embrace the unexpected and live in the moment. People are drawn to riding for many of the same reasons-to test themselves, find themselves, and express themselves. To find some peace and beauty. To inject fun and adventure into their busy lives. Live to Rideis an illustrated gift book for those who love to bike. It's for every type of cyclist-from mountain bikers, to commuters, to tourers and triathletes and beach cruisers and bikepackers and messengers. To wheelie kids, to vintage bike collectors. Author, Peter Flax, a celebrated cycling journalist, is here to show us that cycling should be inclusive-that all riders are connected in various, yet similar, ways. Organized by theme, each one exploring what Flax believes are the shared reasons that people ride: Adventure, Speed, Utility, Nature, Competition, and Self-Expression. Within each chapter are interviews and profiles with a diverse list of famed riders, both legendary and contemporary.
