    oh thanks for the recommends! I have read Lances books and a couple of Bob Rolls... will check these out too...

    I also want to pick up "Dancing on the Pedals: The Found Poetry of Phil Liggett"... have heard good things about it and hoping to gift it to cycling friends for Xmas...

    As a result of Sadie Kate's message so much traffic spilled over into my Web site that I had to check out what was going on. Thanks for the positive vibes! I live in an estrogen filled house (a wife and three daughters) so a place like this feels like home to me.

    Anyway, I hope that if any of you read my books you'll drop me a line. The easiest way to contact me is through my Web site. My writing career is making big strides thanks to enthusiastic readers like Sadie Kate. Many, many thanks for spreading the word!

    My Mother just sent me a book about 4 New Zealanders who toured France around the route of the first TdF 1903

    Chasing the Chimney Sweep - A joyride around the first Tour de France by Selwyn Parker, Penguin 2006

    Pleasant and light this book really captures the French countryside and people. I did my own little one-month tour 25 years ago "toute seule, avec ma bicyclette et une tente " and the book brought back so many memories

    All you need is love...la-dee-da-dee-da...all you need is love!

    I just tried to find that book (Chimney Sweep). It won't be released here until 30 August. Phoooey!
