Praise for Cycletherapy:
There's a strong connection between moving the body and soothing
the heart, and these gorgeous essays--by turns touching, defiant,
and inspiring--drive (or should I say ride) the point home. Whether
you bike as a form of political resistance or as a means to cart
your kids to school, you'll find something to connect to in this
sweet, tough book. --Katie Haegele, Slip of the Tongue and
White Elephants
They're short, personal pieces, and include interviews, fiction,
a diary, and information about bike zines. It's one to dip into,
and find something that touches you. --Pro Women's Cycling
Praise for volumes in the previous series:
The authors do not attempt to speak for everyone, and they do not
attempt to convince; they simply share their own experiences and
thoughts--in a manner that is almost alarmingly unguarded in an era
of self-conscious and self-defensive blog writing we are all
growing increasingly used to. --Constance Winters, Lovely
Bicycle
