And Elly Blue herself addresses that bane of the cyclist’s life, butt-dialling. I have named my bicycle, so “Tabula Rasa” – about forming an emotional connection to your ride – worked for me “Bikes to New Sarjun” is incomplete but takes up the idea of bicycles and charity and government intransigence.
“Winning is Everything” looks at a woman defying a male status quo, while “Grandma Takes Off” features a very awesome older lady. “The Sassy Chassis Lassies and the Devolution Revolution” makes comment on road etiquette – and the frequent lack of it from cars – as well as the freedom offered by bikes. “Racing the Drones” is a nod to bike couriers everywhere, and the advantages they have over other forms of delivery. It’s a cute little product – goes well with the Twelve Planets books I don’t know who did the physical publishing but it feels nice and well-made. Bikes in Space Volume II should please fans of feminist lit and science fiction alike-and anyone else who loves a fascinating tale. This collection of short stories takes you on a far-out romp through dystopian societies where you encounter futuristic bike messengers and witness urban races with life-or-death consequences. "Bikes in Space: A Feminist Science Fiction Anthology creates it’s own place in the SF genre with ecological, technological, and dystopian themes mixed together with humor and some hard-riding bicyclists."
