On Bicycles is a great little book of short essays about Bike culture, gear and hints and tips from a wide cast of cycling writers.

With subjects as diverse as  safety,  how to park your bike, choosing a style, cargo biking, E-bikes , hand made frames , choosing a bag , route planning, health, economics,  attitude, bike culture and sub-cultures and political activism it has a little something for everyone.

It’s easy to dip in to and find something new and interesting no matter what kind of cyclist you are (or want to be) and will give you ideas on parts of bike culture you may not know so much about yet. It’s a well illustrated and nicely printed little book for the daily commuter and the first time rider alike.
