The author, an army surgeon, starts commuting to work by bicycle. Clifford Graves recounts humorous early experiencesbeing outpaced by a colonel with a horse who promptly sells it. Key adventures include riding his bicycle into London during an air raid, smuggling it across the English Channel on D-Day, evading German tanks in the Battle of the Bulge, and cycling through the ruins of Berlin.
