"The rules for living well, if you can call them that, are simple and a pleasure to follow. Eat local and mostly plants. Ride your bike, even on rainy days. Say yes to dinner invitations. Always bring your signature dessert. Invite people on picnics. Bike in the sunshine. Follow a morning ride with a strong French press." so begins The Culinary Cyclist: A Cookbook and Companion for the Good Life, Anna Brones' love song to the dual pleasures of eating well and getting around by bicycle. More than a cookbook, it's a guide to good living. Illustrator Johanna Kindvall adds charm and clarity to the essays and recipes. The book is packed with clear, simple, Swedish-inspired recipes that include such delights as baked eggs in avocados (perhaps the ideal breakfast food) and a classic, creamy chocolate cake that happens to be made without gluten.Other sections include planning guides for key life activities like shopping by bicycle, making your own bags to use for produce and bulk goods, hosting a successful dinner party, and setting off for an impromptu picnic without breaking your champagne glasses in your bike pannier. All recipes in the book are vegetarian and gluten-free, many are vegan, and all are delicious, suitable for beginner cooks or those looking to branch out.

Industry Reviews

"This book seems to be written for me, and probably for you. Basic instructions for leading a good life...a great book for your coffee table, shelf in the kitchen, or to keep a stack on hand as gifts for friends." - Bike Shop Girl

"Food is fuel. Author Anna Brones has penned more than just a cookbook; The Culinary Cyclist is a lifestyle guide for the happy and healthy rider" - Momentum Magazine

"The path to happiness and "good living" may be as rough and winding as a cobblestone street but borrowing a bike or buying an apple is a great first step towards getting you there- and The Culinary Cyclist is the perfect guidebook to help you along the way." - Paris Paysanne

"Honest, enthusiastic, genuine... both Anna and her book approach food in a timeless way. Anna's food philosophy involves eating for enjoyment, loving the food that you eat and appreciating it at a table, surrounded by friends. In the end, it's this part of her philosophy that flows into the book. Biking, for her, is much more than a simple way to get around. It's a lifestyle that creates a community, a community that will find itself further united by this book." - Emily Monaco, Organic Authority
