Wheel Life: Cycling Recollections of the 1950s and 1960s

Author and historian Ben Schofield interviews veteran cyclists about their experiences on tracks and the road in Melbourne during the 1950s and 1960s. Many of these cyclists were world class and helped make Australia a major power in cycling.

The book includes copies of newspaper clippings and other images, as well as photographs - many never before published images from the personal scrapbooks and collections of the interviewed riders.

“If you enjoy cycling books, or feel prone to a little nostalgia from time to time, Ben Schofield’s Wheel Life should be on your shelf.” - The Conversation
