The Bicycle Commuter's Pocket Guide : Gear You Need, Clothing to Wear, Tips for Traffic, Roadside Repair

As sensible as it may be in this era of enhanced environmental consciousness (and super high fuel prices), a switch to bicycle commuting - on the individual level, that is - doesn't necessarily happen overnight. As anyone who has tried forgoing four wheels for two can attest, certain questions arise: Will an inexpensive bike do, or do I need the $1,500 one? What do I wear? (Do I have to show up at work in Lycra shorts?) Is it okay to ignore Stop signs? What to do when, halfway to or from work ...a tire blows? Compact and user-friendly, "The Bicycle Commuter's Pocket Guide" is for those just starting to ride a bicycle to work (or seriously thinking about it) and for those already doing so, but who could use a handy little reference in their packs!
