Pure joy. Happy, generous, funny, kind, wise and full of fresh air. An absolutely wonderful book. * Jeremy Vine * Engaging, entertaining and enlightening * Chris Boardman * A glorious celebration of the wonder and absurdity of cycling * Ned Boulting * A treasure trove of line-drawn persuasion * The Washing Machine Post * Cartoonist and cyclist Dave Walker has put together this hilarious coffee table book full of cycling-related illustrations - Review of The Cycling Cartoonist * Cycling Weekly * I would be very surprised if there wasn't at least one page in this book with which any subculture of cyclist could not identify. Review of The Cycling Cartoonist * thewashingmachinepost * With luck, Walker may be at the forefront of a renaissance of the art of cycling cartoons. I for one would be happy to see more exponents of the art showing off their talents if they are as good as this. Review of Cycling Cartoonist -- Feargal McKay * www.podiumcafe.com * I laughed out loud... There's so much in this book that will appeal to any rider. Review of The Cycling Cartoonist * www.ridevelo.cc * Dave combines artistic ability with insight to show just why a picture is worth a thousand words. Engaging, entertaining and enlightening without relying on text is a rare ability. * Chris Boardman *
