– FROM THE BOOK
ABOUT THE BOOK
More than a book about e-bikes
It grew from something we’ve witnessed over many years at MeloYelo. We’ve watched people in their 60s, 70s and 80s rediscover cycling after 20, 30 or even 40 years away. But something else often happened.
They rediscovered confidence. Made new friends. Explored new places. And sometimes they surprised themselves.
That made us wonder whether one of the biggest obstacles to ageing well isn’t simply what happens to our bodies, but what we gradually stop believing is possible.
That question became this book.
This book is for you.
