On Your Bike

Más información sobre el libro

An illustrated, comprehensive guide for children on choosing, maintaining, and maximizing their biking experience, featuring insights from Olympic cycling champion Sir Chris Hoy. This engaging book introduces children to the exciting world of cycling through the Flying Fergus characters, illustrated by Clare Elsom, and includes a scrapbook-style collage of nostalgic childhood bike moments, technical drawings, and practical photography. The ring-bound format allows the book to lie flat for easy practice alongside the bike in the garage. It also provides access to bonus step-by-step videos of Sir Chris demonstrating essential tips and tricks. Key topics include selecting the right bike—BMX, racer, mountain bike, or hybrid—along with advice on clothing and kit for all weather conditions and safety gear to ensure visibility on the road. The maintenance section offers detailed diagrams for changing a tire and checking for wear and tear, complemented by video footage from Sir Chris. Additionally, readers will learn how to master tricks like wheelies, discover fun racing games, and find creative ideas to enhance cycling sessions in the park. The book also includes a Fill-In-Your-Own Cycling Log, packed with ideas, hints, and quizzes.
