Keith Dunstan — one of Australia's most beloved and irreverent journalists — takes readers on an exhilarating two-wheeled journey through decades of passionate cycling in The Confessions of a Bicycle Nut. Part memoir, part love letter to the humble bicycle, this charming work chronicles Dunstan's lifelong obsession with cycling, weaving personal anecdote with sharp social observation to paint a vivid portrait of a man utterly devoted to pedal power on the roads of Australia and beyond. Dunstan's signature wit and warm, conversational prose — honed over a distinguished career at Melbourne's *Herald Sun* — transform what might seem a niche subject into a richly entertaining meditation on sport, freedom, eccentricity, and the peculiarly Australian relationship with leisure and the outdoors. Published by Information Australia, this is a title that will resonate deeply with cyclists, sports enthusiasts, and anyone who has ever felt the singular, wind-in-the-face joy of a long ride — leaving the reader wondering just how many more confessions Dunstan has kept to himself.
