Description

Has your bicycle become your biggest escape of late? Are you rediscovering the joy of two wheels? If so, then Back in the Frame from award-winning blogger, Lady Velo, is the book for you

Jools Walker re-discovered cycling aged twenty-eight after a ten-year absence from the saddle. When she started blogging about her cycle adventures under the alias Lady Velo, a whole world was opened up to her. But it's hard to find space in an industry not traditionally open to women - especially women of colour.

Shortly after getting back on two wheels, Jools was diagnosed with depression and then, in her early thirties, hit by a mini-stroke. Yet, through all of these punctures, one constant remained: Jools' love of cycling.

In Back in the Frame Jools talks to the other female trailblazers who are disrupting the cycling narrative as well as telling the story of how she overcame her health problems, learned how to cycle her own path and even found a love of Lycra shorts along the way.



About the Author

Jools Walker (a.k.a. LadyVelo) is the cycle-style blogger behind www.VeloCityGirl.co.uk that launched in March 2010 when she bought her Pashley Princess 'Frankie' and assumed that would be the only bike she'd ever want. A familiar face and website on the cycling scene, Jools' blog and social media presence has evolved from being her 'tiny corner of the internet' to inspiring women around the world to get back on the saddle and ride. She now finds herself talking about cycling culture on the sofas of BBC Newsnight, writing about it in nationwide publications and giving talks at women's cycling events across the country.
