The Cyclist's Training Diary Book

On this rainy Sunday afternoon, five months after I began this book, I finally finished it, having read about ten books in between. While it contained good information, it was easy to put down. I'd like to read it again, it were half the length. The author goes on long after his point has been made, through analogy, cliche, and I think, jokes, much to the enjoyment of himself, and maybe some other readers, but not me. Definitely he's passionate about the sport and the illustrations are cute.
