INTRODUCTION
If you’re reading this, you’ve been bitten. You may not even know it yet,
but it’s true: The cycling bug has got you and got you good. How do we
know? Because the difference between someone who rides a bike (which
applies to most of the world’s population) and a cyclist (which you are
about to become) is the desire to improve their riding. It is one thing to
pedal a bicycle down a road or trail without thinking about the art and
science behind it; it’s entirely another thing to dissect the sport in search of
improvement and increased enjoyment. Simply by picking this book off the
shelf (or having someone who knows you well pick it for you), you’ve
proved that you belong in the latter category.
