1) Paperback Book Zinn's Cycling Primer: Maintenance Tips and Skill Building for Cyclists by VeloPress. Excellent reference volume for any cyclist. Nearly all aspects of biking including basic set-up, maintenance, physical conditioning,and honing riding skills are dealt with in "blocks" consisting of a few pages to full chapters. I find myself checking a section for a few minutes in the "library" and then rereading full chapters.¤

3) Paperback Book Zinn's Cycling Primer: Maintenance Tips and Skill Building for Cyclists by VeloPress. Zinn´s brand new book (2004) is must have in any bike enthusiast´s library. Building on his excellent maintenance books, which go into every detail of fixing and tuning your bike, the cycling primer is abundant with tips and tricks to improve riding skills.
Ok, I ride a Zinn bike and might be biased but he is a competent author who used to race internationally and who explores unorthodox ways to cater for special needs of tall (and short) people. The book goes into great detail on how to properly fit a bike, tune it and a good overview on training techniques. I enjoyed reading it and will keep consulting it.
