Women are built differently, ride differently, train differently, burn different macronutrients as fuel, and have a different relationship with their bikes than men do. It's only natural they should need their own comprehensive cycling book. The Bicycling Big Book of Women's Cycling by Selene Yeager is a Bicycling-branded instructional manual geared specifically toward women. It breaks down the sport of cycling down into easily digestible sections, beginning with the history of women's cycling and progressing into equipment, lifestyle, technique, training, and fitness goals. The book also includes a women-specific section that covers cycling while menstruating, cycling while pregnant, how menopause affects your training, and how specific parts of the female body are uniquely affected by cycling. The Bicycling Big Book of Women's Cycling will serve as an indispensible, life-long guide for every female cyclist.

"I'm so happy there's finally a book containing concrete information for female cyclists written by a woman who's moved through the ranks from beginner to pro athlete. Selene Yeager's writing speaks to all ability levels, and she backs up this comprehensive collection of essential information with science, passion, and years of real-life experience. This book will accelerate your learning curve and answer questions you never even knew you had." -Rebecca Rusch, Four-time Leadville 100 champion and author of Rusch to Glory "This outstanding book addresses every aspect of what a woman needs to understand to master the art of cycling. Selene Yeager's many years of experience as a pro cyclist and writer enable her to explain the most technical concepts in easy-to-understand language, and she really nails what it means to be a woman in the cycling world! As a woman and an athlete, I highly recommend that all women make this book part of their go-to library." -Stacy Sims, M.SC., PH.D., Exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist, chief research officer and cofounder of Osmo Nutrition
