Customer Reviews

5 stars is not enough.

This is my top bicycling read. I love Bob's honesty in all of his rookie mistakes. Hey, we've all been there! I've also used his book for routing in Colorado. Some books are good for one read, others are keepers. Hurt City I have gone back and reread numerous times - still laughing out loud. Too bad he never wrote another book . . . .

Heart for Hurts!

This is a book for all who take up the wheel. Bob Voiland writes from the heart. It is not only full of practical advice on bike touring, but it takes the reader on a tour with a guy who shares his heart with you. It is a book not to be read and put on the shelf, but one you will browse for years to come. It makes you wish you could take a bike ride with this very likeable guy.

Purist Cycler, not a writer

Voiland is a purist; the book tracks his journey into cycling and his trek through the 48 continuous states. Road stories and advice is intersparced with philosophy and humor. It is essentially travel journal made into book form. Contains valuable information for a perspective tourist, and is endearing in it's sincerity.
