Book Recommendation

[Nanci]

T-

Have you read "Downhill: The Story Of A Gravity Goddess" by Marla Streb? Since you MTB, I think you would love it. Actually, I think anyone would love it.

I am also waiting to read "Lance Armstrong's War" and "Inside The Postal Bus."

One of the best books I've read this year is "Swimming To Antartica" about long distance cold water swimming.

A really good read is "Miles from No Where," by Barbara Savage. The author writes about her and her husband's bicycle adventure around the world. On a whim, they decided to use their house savings on travelling around the world on bikes, and they didn't even ride bikes that much in the first place. Its a wonderful story, and the author writes it well.

Thanks for the recommendations for "Helf on Wheels", etc....I'm always looking for a good read when it comes to adventure or bicylce related books.

Happy riding!

Nanci - I agree about swimming to Antarctica its a great book. Lynne Cox is an inspiration for everyone but especially people undertaking ultra endurance events.

Joe Kurmaskie's "Metal Cowboy" books (two of them) are a good read.
