Review
This book is chock-full of useful information on a myriad of topics ranging from entering the bicycle business to what cyclists should eat. In my case, I found my passion for riding in my mid thirties and wish that I would it would have been earlier in my life. [This] book will help others in this regard and I recommend it. --Stan Gregg, President, Gregg's Cycles, Inc., #3 bike shop in the US according to Velo Business Magazine

Thoroughly enjoyed this book!,
By Jackson (San Diego, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Open Your Heart With Bicycling: Mastering Life Through Love of the Road (Open Your Heart) (Perfect Paperback)
This book explains many aspects of bicycling that I knew little about. Everything from choosing the correct bike for your body-type, to the correct way to ride and race on a velodrome (which I need to work on! lol). Shawn Rohrbach also goes into an important part of bicycling for me which is exercising and eating right. I enjoyed hearing about how others eat while training and racing. Overall I am convinced that this is a terrific book for any bicyclist from the newer riders to the veteran riders who may be thinking of opening up their own bicycle shop.

I found this book very rewarding and it renewed my love for bicycling. You are alone and have time to think and regroup. You find that there is a purpose in life just waiting to be explored.
