Greetings all,

I'm writing a new book on bike commuting, and I'm looking for input. Have thoughts to share on the topic? I'd love to hear from you!

Basic bike commuting advice is easy to find online, and we're lucky for it, yet the few recent books on the topic tend to be academic, or first-person accounts. So I'm hoping to broaden the aperture; to include a range of perspectives on this topic. The goal is to create an engaging and credible reference for readers who might not have immediate access to bike culture; for those who may be thinking about riding to work, but may not know anyone nearby to ask about it. This will be an invitation to join us!

The approach here mirrors what I did with my last book, Riding More With Less: A Future for Bike Repair (see https://pmpress.org/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1543), which surveyed community bike shops to gather ideas on resourceful approaches to bike repair. So this new book also begins with a survey, which is available as a Google form:

The same survey is also accessible via Survey Planet, for the Google-averse:

The survey opens with additional detail on the rationale for this project, for any curious to know more. Thanks in advance for returning the survey, should you be so inclined. And please feel free to share!

Best, Sam Tracy
