One of the founding fathers of mountain biking, and certainly one of its most colorful characters, Gary Fisher, has a new autobiography available today at Trekbikes.com. According to press materials from Trek, “The new book is part history, part origin story, and part mind-melting photographic account of ingenious innovation, dogged determination, and boundless energy. Most importantly, it’s an intimate portrait of a living legend and his legacy, and a meditation on the great gift of mountain biking.”

The book is laid out magazine-style with colorful text overlapping personal photos spanning decades.

“My story is about discovering how you can do things differently,” says Fisher. “Did I ever expect mountain bikes to get this popular? Well, yes. But what I didn’t expect was how far people would take them.”

Being Gary Fisher And the Bicycle Revolution is available as a hardcover online for $39.95.
