Hello - I've written a book, and here it is:
The ebook (for Kindle or Kindle app) can be purchased here It's less than the price of a pint in a chain pub, or the price of a half in a fancy London boozer.
I would be very happy if you'd consider buying it, and then writing a review on amazon.co.uk, should you enjoy it in any way.
A paperback edition, with all the benefits of a paperback edition - nicer font and layout inside, new book smell, etc. - will be available via all the Amazons in about 8 weeks. I'm just waiting for a few proofs to approve. There's also a strong possibility it will be available to buy in Look Mum No Hands, both instore and via their webshop, and we're currently discussing launch party/book signing options, however low-key they may be.
On a personal note, the challenge of sustaining iambic pentameter in an accessible fashion for the whole thing, and creating something that any cyclist should be able to relate to, at least in part, proved too much for a while, and I shelved it. This year, however, turned out to be one filled with British cycling success stories, so I pulled my finger out, and Faith (my wife) stepped up too.
If you buy it the ebook, or the paperback when it comes out, (or both!), I really hope you enjoy it.
