 Krabbe gets it right March 29, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is an incredible work, considering that Krabbe is a non-cyclist. Every time I read "The Rider" I am impressed by his ability to capture the experiences of bicycle racing.
If you are a competitive cyclist, or just a cycling enthusiast, Krabbe's work is a must-read.

agreat classic cycling book. I highly recommend it for those of us that love cycling!
The Rider - A must read for cyclists January 7, 2008
This is not a long book but it really captures the experience of riding whether you are racing or just riding. Anyone who cycles can relate to this story.
 A quick and somewhat interesting read. September 4, 2007
I found this book a very quick easy read - and it kept my attention. There was a point where it was hard for me to put down near the end. Being new to road cycling this year (generally ride mountain - which I still prefer...) I found it an interesting view into what other riders may be thinking when dropping me on a climb. There is humor in the comments Krabbe makes and the manner in which he frames things.
Goes great with the Tour! August 22, 2007
I read The Rider this year during the Tour de France. Not only was it a great piece of literature, it enhanced watching Contador battle through the final stages. One of the better reads lately!
