There's a gal on Bay Area Riders Forum (BARF) who just posted this up:  http://www.chicksonbikes.us/

It's her new book filled with pages of photos and stories about contemporary and vintage women riders.  It looks pretty cool, and she's a rider herself--one of her bikes is a Duc.  waytogo  Click on the photo in the center of the page and you get a selection of tabs, one of which is to purchase the book.  I'm picking one up for the step-mother-in-law for Christmas who also rides.  [moto]  If any of you are local to the SF Bay area, she's having a book launch/ride in SF on Sept. 13 that ends at a local bike bar, Benders.  Hope this doesn't sound too spammy...I don't know this gal at all.  I haven't seen many books like this around and according to her husband she's been working on it for years.   Vino!

Thanks - this book looks pretty cool.  I've got a few people that i think would enjoy this.

Some people are like Slinkies. They're really good for nothing; however, they can still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

You can't fool us.  You're just getting it for the cover shot.   Wink

Seat vag....  laughingdp  I think the cover is awesome.  She was asking if it was "over the top"?  It's spot on in my opinion.   waytogo

It's out there! And will be good for sales! We're talking about it, aren't we?  And Trouble's definitely going to tell all his guy friends about this book (er, this book's cover).

I just bought one and requested that she sign it.  Came out to $30 total.  Not bad.  I'm hoping that it doesn't come wrapped.  I want to see it before I give it away.   cheeky

Wrapped in dark, private wrap that some, ahem, magazines come wrapped in.
