If you'd like to find out more about me, and about urban cycling, click on the title of this box to go to my Articles page. This contains all the articles I've written - and, as I keep on writing more of them, it keeps on getting updated. I hope it will be both informative and entertaining, though of course you'll be the best judge of that. Have a look!
Thinking about cycling to work? Well DON'T! Not until you've read this first...
Unsure about how to get going? Worried you'll end up with a bike you never use? Don't be – this book will give you all the information you need, and so much more!
Dear fellow commuter,
More and more people are getting on their bikes and cycling in our towns and cities – and you can join them! I guess you’re already thinking about it, or you wouldn’t be reading this. Well, it's time to stop thinking about it and DO IT – it’ll be one of the best decisions you ever made. Whatever you’re thinking of doing by bike – commuting, leisure, or just getting around your city – this book is EXACTLY what you’ve been looking for. It will ANSWER all your questions, HELP you out with any doubts and concerns you may have and give you a WHOLE LOAD of useful information, advice and tips.
So where are you at right now? You like the idea of cycling in the city, but you have worries about actually doing it. Maybe it seems like a dangerous thing to do? Not sure what type of bike you should get, what other stuff you'll need, and how much it's all going to cost? That city traffic can look pretty scary – will you cope with it OK? Will you need a whole load of clothes to wear when you ride? And how will you keep your bike safe from thieves?
Well, the good news is that I can help you with ALL of this and MORE besides. I’ve lived and cycled in various big cities for over twenty years, and I’ve loved doing it all that time – I wouldn’t still be doing it otherwise! Over those years I’ve built up a wealth of knowledge and experience, all of which I know you’ll find invaluable. I felt pretty nervous at first – I lived in a very big, very busy city at the time – but the more I rode my bike, the more confident I became. I got fitter too, and felt BETTER, HEALTHIER, LESS STRESSED. No more stuffy subways, no more traffic jams – just the happy freedom that comes with being in control. No more money going on gas or fares either – MY BIKE PAID FOR ITSELF in just a FEW MONTHS!
I’ve put ALL this KNOWLEDGE and EXPERIENCE into The Urban Cycling Handbook. It’s packed with answers, information and advice, including:
The benefits of cycling in the city Answers to all those ‘What about…’ questions you have What type of bike to get Other stuff you’ll need – and stuff you’ll get along just fine without Making sure your bike’s right for you Getting the most from your bike Coping in a busy urban environment A glossary, so you’ll know what I’m talking about! …and much, much more
If you’d like a FREE preview of what you’ll find in this book, just click the link below – I’ll be happy to send you, with no obligation, an excerpt from the book. It’s the first couple of chapters, plus the closing page – and the table of contents, so you’ll see how much more you’ll get when you buy the book! The excerpt, like the book itself, is in PDF format, so you'll need the adobe Reader to view it.

You COULD spend $50 OR MORE on a shelf-load of cycling magazines and look a load of stuff up on the internet, and you MIGHT get about HALF the information that’s contained in this book. In other words, it would cost you a lot in money, time and effort – and you’d still be no more than halfway! You COULD just go out and buy a cheap bike, then stop riding it because it's not good to ride – or you COULD buy a bike which is way more expensive than you need. Either way you’d be THROWING YOUR MONEY AWAY!
DO THE SMART THING. Just click through and download your copy of The Urban Cycling Handbook in a few minutes – at the SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY PRICE of just $27! Yes, that’s right – $27 and all the information you need will be at your fingertips, all laid out in a clear, easy-to-read form.
But I won’t be selling this book at that price for very long. Once I’ve sold the first thousand copies the price will go up to $37 – and you know what? It’s STILL a bargain at that price! After all, it could SAVE you from spending a load of money on a fancy bike and a heap of gear that you don’t really need – and that could be HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS! So $37 is a GREAT PRICE. But if you want to get it for the SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY PRICE, you need to act NOW!
Buy this book, get on your bike and ride – YOU WON'T REGRET IT!

PS: How would you like to be this time next year? FITTER, HEALTHIER, BETTER OFF? Or just like you are now, only maybe a few pounds heavier, a lot grayer, and feeling five years older? Cycling makes you feel HEALTHY, FIT and YOUNG – you won't get any of that sitting in a traffic jam, or sweating on the subway!
PPS: Remember, the SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY PRICE won't last for long - so click the link and BUY IT NOW!
