The Bluffer's Guide to Cycling (The Bluffer's Guides) by
Rob Ainsley
Funnier than anything Lance Armstrong ever wrote. And certainly much truer. --Jack Thurston, Presenter, The Bike Show
Cycling is a beautifully simple activity that enthusiasts love to overcomplicate. Rob Ainsley redresses the balance. --Dan Joyce, Editor, Cycle (CTC Magazine)
If you're concerned that you'll get MAMIL mixed up with 'maillot jaune' or that you don't know your bottom bracket from a Brompton then Rob Ainsley's your man. For Rob it really is about the bike... --Rob Spedding, Editor, Cycling Plus.
Rob Ainsley grew up in Hull, which Philip Larkin described as nice and flat for cycling that s about the best I can say . He studied maths at Oxford, which might explain why he calls himself an A-to-B cyclist. Taking Norman Tebbit s advice of the time, he got on his bike and looked for work, but found that he liked cycling more than work. He has cycled all over the UK and more that 30 other countries, and can shout at taxi drivers in four languages. He is a regular contributor to Cycle (CTC magazine) and Cycle Plus, wrote the guidebook 50 Quirky Bikes Rides (Eye Books) and is a cycling blogger and Twitterer (@realcycling). Rob lives in cycling city York, whose facilities clearly delight his Dutch friends. They can t stop laughing at them.
