Based on his popular series in the New York Times chronicling his crosscountry bicycle trip, bestselling author Bruce Weber shares his adventures from his solo ride across the USA.Based on his popular New York Times series, bestselling author Bruce Weber shares the adventures of his solo bicycle ride from coast to coast.Riding a bicycle across the United States is one of those bucketlist goals that many dream about but few fulfill. During the summer and fall of 2011, at the age of fiftyseven, Bruce Weber, an obituary writer for The New York Times, made the trip, alone, and wrote about it as it unfolded mile by mile, a vivid and immediate report of the selfpowered life on the road.Now, expanding upon the articles and blog posts that quickly became a mustread adventure story, Weber gives us Life Is a Wheel, a witty, inspiring, and reflective diary of his journey, in which the challenges and rewards of selfreliance and strenuous physical effort yield wry and incisive observations about cycling and America, not to mention the pleasures of a threethousandcalorie breakfast.The story begins on the Oregon coast, with Weber wondering what hes gotten himself into, and ends in triumph on New York Citys George Washington Bridge. From GoingtotheSun Road in the northern Rockies to the headwaters of the Mississippi and through the cityscapes of Chicago and Pittsburgh, his encounters with people and places provide us with an intimate, twowheeled perspective of America. And with thousands of miles to travel, Weber considers when hes not dealing with tractortrailers, lightning storms, dehydration, headwinds, and lonelinesshis past, his family, and the echo that a welllived life leaves behind.Part travelogue, part memoir, part romance, part paean to the bicycle as a simple mode of both mobility and selfexpressionand part bemused and panicky account of a middleaged mans attempt to stave off, well, you knowLife Is a Wheel is an elegant and beguiling escape for biking enthusiasts, armchair travelers, and any readers who are older than they were yesterday.
