Wheels on Ice

Description

“From everyday bike commutes to weeks-long wilderness rides, Alaskans continue to push the pedals and their own limits. This spirited and lively collection will delight hardcore riders, weekend riders, and readers who’ll enjoy vicariously these wild adventures on wheels.” —Peggy Shumaker, author of Just Breathe Normally “Thrilling! . . . Readers will experience not only long pedals through the landscapes and wildlife of this most beautiful state but also the personal introspection that only a good ride can inspire. At turns humorous, inspiring, and thought-provoking, and all so beautifully written. It’ll make you want to ride, even at forty below.” —Daryl Farmer, author of Bicycling beyond the Divide Wheels on Ice Stories of Cycling in Alaska Edited by Jessica Cherry and Frank Soos University of Nebraska Press | Lincoln © 2022 by the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska Cover designed by University of Nebraska Press; cover photo © Bjørn Olson.
