Bicycle Built for Two, January 19, 2001
This review is from: Bicycle Built for Two: Across America and back in 1938 (Paperback)
Having just completed a coast to coast bike trip and having done many tandem trips, this book for me was thoroughly enjoyable. We met Mrs. Young when she was no longer young - but still full of vitality. When she made the trip and wrote the book, she not only had incredible energy, but a zest for life and an appreciation for all she encountered that are hard to match. The unique style is marred only by a little of the racial attitudes of the time. But the book on the whole is difficult to put down and can inspire all who have not yet taken bicycle trips - on tandems or singles - to do so.

I enjoyed reading Bicycle Built for Two immensely. The format of the diary was well written, entertaining, and kept my attention. Now I'm purchasing it to give as gifts to my friends that ride in the bicycle ragbrai (bike ride across Iowa).
