This week I was listening to my favorite bicycling podcast, The Fredcast, and David Bernstein interviewed David Rowe, the author of the ebook Ride of Your Life. I was intrigued by the interview where the author asks the question, Why do you ride? According to Mr. Rowe there are a mountain of books on riding better but he could not find one that deals with why a person rides.
The Ride of Your Life is based on a structured, 8-step program that’s done without turning the pedals even one revolution. It’s a program . . . a process . . . that Rowe developed and refined during several years that saw him make the leap from Saturday morning club rider to accomplished long-distance cyclist and randonneur.
Rowe supports his program with a series of worksheets that you can print from this eBook and use for every new season.
His approach is found nowhere else. Most training books give brief attention to goal setting and fitting time for cycling into a life full of commitments to family and career. That’s not a knock against those plans – it’s just not their focus.
I do not have an interest in selling the book but the author did ask a very good question. You can listen to the interview in #113 edition of The Fredcast.
