Bike Racing 101 - the book
By Kendra
Wenzel and René Wenzel, with contributions by Scott Saifer
"After years of feeling like there was
no newer book out there that addresses the beginning racer and answers
questions about beginning form, skills, and tactics, we teamed up with
Human Kinetics publishers to put together Bike Racing 101.
This book represents over 50 combined
years of experience and a year and a half of writing work. We hope
that you'll enjoy it and that you'll read it again and again as you
develop as a racer. This is also a great book for parents following
along the career of a budding junior age racer, or for anyone who
wants to understand the sport of bike racing."

"Bike Racing 101 is the perfect book for anyone who’s serious
about getting into racing. René and Kendra combine their
coaching and racing experience and expertise to cover every
aspect of this highly competitive sport, making this the one
book you’ll use again and again."

"Bike Racing 101 is a thoroughly enjoyable
book. It sets out to encourage the beginner in the world of
cycle racing and it not only achieves this goal, but also has
enough depth and weight to be of interest to the more
experienced rider too. The book deserves to be successful
because the authors offer excellent coaching and training
experience and expertise while maintaining a clear, concise
and realistic approach."
