Sequel. Moore returns from his epic cycle journey craving more. Endurance Bunny is a comedy true story of one man's continual drive to survive as he heads into surgery and then undertakes to cycle from St David's Head to Lowestoft. Moore finds a new cycling partner; Endurance Bunny-a completely different beast entirely. A man who is physically fit, primed to perfection, who runs a marathon before breakfast and chops down trees with his bare hands. But Moore doesn't cope well with being the unfit one, especially when forced to watch his superhuman colleague make everything look easy. Flipping between the diary of their cycle journey and his impending surgical doom, Endurance Bunny follows the exploits of a man whose body is getting older, fatter and slowly disintegrating. Moore moans about his operation, his rising blood pressure, his knackered knees and increasing weight, but this time there is nothing he can do about it-or is there? Includes daily maps, road, traffic conditions and contour.

Invisible Bicycle

Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004289976
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
The Invisible Bicycle brings together different insights into the social, cultural and economic history of the bicycle and cycling in historical eras of ubiquitous bicycle use that have remained relatively invisible in bicycle history. It revisits the typical timeline of cycling’s decline in the 1950s and 1960s and the renaissance beginning in the 1970s by bringing forth the large national and local variations, varying uses and images of the bicycle, and different bicycle cultures as well as their historical background and motivations. To understand the role, possibilities and challenges of the bicycle today, it is necessary to know the history that has formed them. Therefore The Invisible Bicycle is recommended also to present-day practitioners and planners of bicycle mobility. Contributors are: Peter Cox, Martin Emanuel, Tiina Männistö-Funk, Timo Myllyntaus, Nicholas Oddy, Harry Oosterhuis, William Steele, Manuel Stoffers, Sue-Yen Tjong Tjin Tai, Frank Veraart.
