Synopsis

Bike Cleaning Basics transforms routine bicycle care from a mundane task into a vital skill, blending practical Crafts & Hobbies techniques with Sports performance principles. The book’s core theme revolves around three essentials: cleaning techniques, lubrication strategies, and inspection protocols. It reveals how neglecting these practices leads to costly repairs, safety risks, and diminished riding quality. For instance, microscopic grit on chains can accelerate wear by 50%, while misaligned brakes double accident likelihood. By demystifying these connections, the guide empowers cyclists to boost bike longevity, save money, and enhance safety—all through simple, consistent habits.

Unlike generic manuals, the book pairs step-by-step tutorials with mechanical insights, such as how soap pH affects aluminum frames or why wet versus dry lubricants suit different climates. It progresses logically from post-ride cleanups to seasonal storage tips, using checklists and real-world examples (like comparing chain care to car engine maintenance). Unique features include QR codes for video tutorials and eco-friendly product comparisons, catering to both DIY enthusiasts and performance-focused riders.

Balancing accessibility with depth, Bike Cleaning Basics avoids technical jargon, using photos and analogies to clarify concepts like bearing systems or hydraulic brake care. Its “Maintenance Mindset” framework encourages manageable 10-minute routines rather than overwhelming overhauls, making professional-grade upkeep achievable for all. By framing cleaning as a cornerstone of cycling culture, this guide redefines what it means to truly care for your bike—and your ride.

Under Water - How Holding My...

Claire Walsh

'I needed to breathe. Not the short, shallow breaths that keep you alive … merely existing. I wanted that breath that starts deep down in your being and fills your lungs and limbs with life.'
Claire Walsh spent her twenties living the life she thought she was supposed to live, all the while playing hide-and-seek with depression. In her thirties, finding herself single and living with her parents, she decided it was time to chart a different path.
In Central America Claire discovered freediving, plunging up to 60 metres below the water's surface without the use of breathing apparatus. It taught her the power of breathwork, but more importantly it taught her how to find freedom in the present moment.
Under Water is a candid and captivating story of what it's like to take part in one of the most dangerous sports in the world, and a reminder that sometimes all we need to do is take a deep breath.
'20,000 leaues of sparkling adventure and tap-dancing prose.' Ruth Fitzmaurice, author of I Found My Tribe

Spotting Danger Before It Spots...

Gary Dean Quesenberry, RN Amber...

As adults, we like to think we have a good idea of what the world may have in store for our teenagers, but the fact of the matter is there's a vast divide between what we perceive as dangerous and what our teens are actually up against.
 
Teenagers (ages 13 - 19) face unique challenges when it comes to situational awareness.
 
These challenges are only exacerbated by the constant physical and biological changes teens are subjected to. As young people learn to deal with these changes, they begin to explore the limits of their individuality.
 
Unfortunately, this process often involves rebellious behavior and unnecessary risk-taking. The key to keeping teens safe during this time is to keep them alert and engaged with their environment.
 
Teenagers have to understand that real personal safety isn't about being scared of what lies around the next corner. It requires confidence that if something bad were about to happen, that they have these skills:

Ability to identify the problem early
Competence to develop a plan of action
Power to control their fear
Aptitude to implement that plan

 
Spotting Danger Before It Spots Your Teens is designed around the principles of positive communication, trust, and teamwork. It’s written specifically to set parents' minds at ease and allow teens to confidently explore their independence, secure in the fact that they can spot dangerous situations before they happen and take the necessary steps to ensure their own well-being.
