a book that breaks biking into quantifiable terms
I found this to be a good book. It took different elements of bicycling and put them in quantifiable terms. for example there is a formula for relating speed, power, aerodynamic drag, rolling resistance and other parameters. The book speaks of various elements of biking: training, equipment, nutrition for example.
Just a collection of reports
This book manages to say nothing definitive about training, racing, or cycling equipment. It is a nice collection of reports on recent research, but provides little practical information.
On another note, the cover looks really cool in my bookshelf!
Excellent book for the bicycle science-geek
This is a great book in the same line of cycling science and high-tech cycling.
It's an collection of many scientif studies of several matters, like aerodynamics, powermeters, weight influence, hydration and other bicycle related subjects. They are in very clear language.
If you like physics and math, have the curiosity and ask many WHYS when riding your bicycle, you are going to love this book! When I finished reading it I felt like I wanted more!
