I just checked Amazon and they're showing publication in April 2011.
Not 2010.

That's typically the publisher's choice.  Been seeing these things occur for
my brother's (non cycling) book, and by the time the writer's done, there's
a whole lotta stuff that happens which is pretty much out of that
person's control.

The only other thing I'll mention is that purchasing it directly through Riv
may make them a little more money in the sale of each book, assuming it's
going to be a Riv product.

I wonder if it'll be a collection of articles by Grant from the reader
and website or all new stuff. Either way, I'll be getting it. And
yeah, I may wait and get it directly from Rivendell.

Somewhat surprised the Amazon site - at least at present - suggests it
will not be available in an e-edition for Kindle.  What with all the
grief Riv took for on-line Riv Reader, you would think a Kindle
version a given.

Mark @RIV HQ mentioned that Grant was busy finishing a book awhile
back. Didn't realize it was going to be published so soon. I'm going
to pre-order mine now.

Wow, I didn't know that was really a book. Thought it was some just
