Ever gotten lost in a book? Or on your bicycle? Or both at once, by falling through a portal on the page? Anything is possible in this collection of fifteen\u00a0very short stories and one comic. Ranging from science fiction to fantasy and traveling in time from a reimagined past to the heat death of the universe, these stories combine the personal and popular power of spokes and words. Meet a young graduate who rides off to become a velo-archivist, a bookstore owner who must learn to bike after cars are banned, a daredevil messenger who makes a harrowing textbook delivery run, a talented scribe who creates a braille bicycle guide, and many more adventurous souls in disparate realities, united by their love for spinning wheels and the written word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Inside you\u2019ll find 15 new short stories and one comic about bikes, books, feminism, and the universe.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are just two days left to fund Bikes, the Universe, and Everything on Kickstarter<\/a>! Rewards include stickers, shirts, books, zines, and more. Plus, if you’re feeling generous, you can add on a tip that will be evenly distributed among the authors.<\/p>\n\n\n
