Een heerlijke verzameling essays die je meeneemt langs verschillende manieren van genieten van het fietsen. Heel fijn om over mijn favoriete activiteit te lezen zonder competitie-element of Stavabullshit.
Gorgeous book exploring our varied relationships with bikes and how they fit in and around our lives. It’s not often warmth radiates from a book as you’re reading it.
