Download Holy Spokes: The Search for Urban Spirituality on Two Wheels AudioBook Free
Invites listeners to accept the religious and communal great things about cycling in the city. After Laura Everett's car died on the road one rainy nighttime, she started driving her bike to work - and started out an unlikely conversion to full-time bike commuter. In Holy Spokes, Everett tells how she became a passionate cyclist and uses her account to develop a distinctly metropolitan spirituality. With chapters set up around the parts of a bike, the book looks at the history of cycling, relates Everett's own experience biking in Boston, and demonstrates on the religious sizes of moving through metropolis on two wheels. "WHEN I bike over the cobblestones and potholes of Boston," Everett says, "I now have daily possibility to see the life of my city more obviously, love the damaged world around me more dearly, and follow this course more almost. Curiously, I think I am nearer to God because of my bike."
