The Cyclist's Friend: A Miscellany of Wit and Wisdom by Chris Naylor
4.0
Complete, concise and amusing guide for cycling fanatics in general, from the absolute beginner to the obsessive Olympian. Big chunks of history, advice on places to visit, and recommendations on everything from clothes and tools to surviving situations such as rain, snow, hills and punctures. For being two years old, it's hilariously outdated tho: it still talks about Lance Armstrong as an inspiration, and it even proudly presents Jimmy Saville as a cyclist on his early days. Hopefully these two infamous examples don't put you off from cycling. After all, Einstein found such joy and peace doing it.
