To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To obtain the greatest benefit there are two things absolutely imperative, viz: a correct sitting posture and the mouth kept shut. Sitting correctly leaves the vital centres (heart, stomach, liver, etc.) in a position for perfect action. This is especially important as regards the digestive organs and the heart. Stooping and dropping the head as low or lower than the handle bars may be essential for racing, but racing is not essential for health. One may incline the body forward but he should n...ot bend or break it, so to speak, at the waist. The movement should be entirely from the hips. With the mouth closed and with a fair rate of speed, deep, full breathing is a natural consequence, the nasal passages are cleared, the brain receives new life force, the lungs are ex- panded, the pulse is quickened, the liver loses its torpidity, the blood is purified, dyspepsia takes its flight, headaches are as quickly dispelled as dew before the morning sun; in short, life is made worth the living.
