This was one of my favorite books during my childhood, and I wanted to re-read it to see if it had influenced me in some subtle way. There's definitely a liberal, urban-friendly undercurrent that might have seeped into my brain. I'd even suggest that urban bikers and biking advocates ought to read this, even if actual bikes hardly ever appear in the book.
