In the not-so-distant future, when gasoline is no longer available, humans turn to two-wheeled vehicles to transport goods, seek glory, and defend their remaining communities. In another version of the future, those with the zombie virus are able to escape persecution and feel almost alive again on two wheels. In yet another scenario, bicycles themselves are reanimated and roam the earth. A talented array of writers bring their diverse visions to this volume: sometimes scary, sometimes spooky, sometimes hilarious, always on two wheels. If you love The Walking Dead but can't figure out why nobody's riding bicycles, this book is for you.The zombie apocalypse will be pedal-powered! And feminist! Watch out!Edited by Elly Blue and featuring an exciting and talented collection of new and returning authors. Scary zombie cover by Amelia Greenhall.Looking for more feminist bicycle science fiction? Check out the original Bikes in Space zine and also the bigger, bookier Volume 2, each with its own unique collection of stories. And check out our first full-length sci fi novel, Emily June Street's The Velocipede Races. And now there's a fourth volume of stories: Biketopia!)
Industry Reviews
"The collection does a superlative job. The 13 short stories that follow are the feminist bicycle science fiction stories I've been waiting for my entire life, without even knowing it. This is not an exaggeration. They're just really, really good. At multiple points in my reading, I found myself drawing hearts in the margins or laughing out loud with sheer delight. The feminism reflected in these pages is my feminism: intelligent, inclusive, and women-centered." --Autostraddle

"Badass women on bikes in dystopian futures? What's not to love?" --Pro Women's Cycling

"Yep, all our lives needed to be complete was a bunch of feminist stories featuring badass heroines, zombies and bicycles...this anthology is so smart and sassy that (a) it doesn't need training wheels and (b) the only thing it requires is your brainnnnssss..." --Mooky Chick
