Ride the Revolution The Inside Stories from Women in Cycling
Edited by Suze ClemitsonPUBLISHING SEPTEMBER 2015
This is not a book of women writing about women's cycling. Nor is it an anthology of women writing about men's bottoms in lycra, or the curse of helmet hair. Our voices come from within the sport itself and from passionate fans. We celebrate the diversity of lives within the glorious, sometimes murky, often bizarre world of cycling in all its soapy operatic glory. These are the inside stories of women in cycling, many of them unsung heroines, the women who have brought about a glorious revolution in the sport.
