Trade Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 4th Printing. 195 Pages. Store sticker on back cover. This book is a compilation of articles and journals published in VeloNews since 1996. Bob Roll is an odd combination of professional mountain and road bike racer, writer, and philosopher all rolled into one: a bit of a poet, a bit of a mad man, sly, a little dirty, beyond gonzo when it's hammer time, calling it like it is all the way down the line. The journal entries, the stories, the Tour de France and world mountain-bike championships, anecdotes that you don't hear riding sport class or category III, are all part of what make Bobke, pronounced boob-ka, such an interesting read. Imagine a sober Hunter S. Thompson racing the professional mountain and road circuit and you'd still come up a little short. Love him or hate him, Roll definitely has something to say, and doesn't mince words doing it.
