Further spiraling down the rabbit hole into uselessness (following their recent FUBARs in changes to donation levels and generally crappy customer service), Humble Bundle offered up this gem:

Humble Book Bundle: Bikes by Microcosm

Now, if one were to judge a bundle by its title, one might assume that this is a batch of small-press books on bicycles and the cycling lifestyle.

Not a chance in hell. It features such wonderful titles as:

• Bikes in Space: Feminist Bicycle Science Fiction

• Taking The Lane - a series of Feminist and Trans 'zines about dealing with misogyny and the like in bicycling culture in Portland

• Bikes Not Rockets: Intersectional Feminist Bicycle Science Fiction Stories

• Trans-Galactic Bike Ride: Feminist Bicycle Science Fiction Stories of Transgender and Nonbinary Adventurers

I couldn't make these up if I tried. Out of the whole bundle it looks like there are maybe three or four books that might have something real to read about cycling culture. The rest are in the same vein as the above-listed feminist and trans rhetoric.

I have but one thing to say: We needed this bundle like a fish needs a bicycle.
