‘Bicycle: The History’, byÃ‚Â David V. Herlihy, which is available on Amazon in paperback ($16.84) and hard cover, has been found mostly scanned and readable for free on Google. Ã‚Â Of course, an open laptop does not a coffee table book make, but if you spent your last dime on some hipster jeans and designer coffee (or a plane ticket to Interbike), free’s sounding pretty good right about now.
