Repack_rider, hopefully you will pop on here again and read this, and see there would be the interest

What do they say about the Devil, whisper his name and he shows up?

I have a collection of books about mountain biking, mostly signed first editions. Nothing in my collection touches mine, because my personal mountain bike history starts before there were mountain bikes, and includes the time when I was one of about a dozen such cyclists in the world.

I wrote my own press release. [url= http://www.dailykos.com/story/2014/08/21/1322844/-My-Book-is-Finished ]Here it is.[/url]

17 September

A day to look forward to

😀

Hang on we may be waiting until the 1 October

I assume that's it. I mean how many books can you be releasing?

+1 for a collected volume of Mint Sauce.

Documents UK riding since pretty early days, and says a lot (to me at least) about how and why we ride.

Pretty pictures too.

I should be able to take care of you. I will be selling signed copies online as soon as I get some.

I heard from the editor that the books arrived from the printer today. I haven't even seen it, but he says it looks great. I'll see it tomorrow, and I'll be signing copies along with Joe Breeze and Gary Fisher on Thursday.

Please post a new thread here or add to this one - I'd be really really keen to get hold of a signed book as many other here would!

If there's ever an album of his trips I'd buy it. One section alone and just look at the landscapes.. Superb pictures.
