Bike Life is longtime cycling enthusiast Adrien Zammit’s love letter to bicycling, celebrating the many ways that simply riding a bike can change your life. On a bicycle, you’re free, you’re getting exercise—and you’re helping make the world a little safer and cleaner for everyone. In this fully illustrated guide, Zammit takes us on a delightful and illuminating tour of the ins and outs of every aspect of bicycles and bike riding, from mechanics and maintenance to touring and bikepacking to the philosophy and advocacy that makes cycling a safe and enjoyable way to get around. The bicycle is the ideal transport, whether you’re commuting and running errands or leaving all cares behind on a weekend pleasure ride. Let Bike Life show you how to pick the perfect bike, and then how to love it and keep it rolling. Getting from point A to B will never be the same!
