    I like the approach because I'm more concerned with making cycling part of my healthy approach to life than looking for strict training regimens for specific races.

    What I'm wondering is if others have advice for great cycling books and if others here have opinions about this book.

    Thanks!
    I too have this book. I have enjoyed reading it, and agree on the well rounded approach. It makes for an easy read with some good stories in between the chapters.
