Bells and Bikes. “A cracking read for anyone who appreciates the Yorkshire countryside,” says the latest five star review of my book on Amazon.

Great to meet Rony Robinson @Rony37 to talk about my new book, “Bells and Bikes” on the Radio Sheffield morning show on 7 December 2015.

You can catch the interview on iPlayer until 7 January 2016.

Click here to listen. My interview is 10 minutes long, from 01:35:22 to 01:45:15. The warm up act is a chart topping hit by Wet Wet Wet, then we get into the real action with anecdotes of Le Tour de France, church bells, Woolly Bikes and even some live handbells on air from my bag.

There’ll also be a clip out soon on the Radio Sheffield website where I talk about Ecclesall Church Handbells, to seek a mix and match to get a proper octave going. We filmed that shortly after the interview with Rony.

My book is now available on Amazon (search Bells and Bikes by Rod Ismay) and also at the following  outlets – Russell’s Cycle Shed (Sheffield Railway Station Cycle Hub), Bradfield Post Office, Cycle Penistone and West Tanfield Post Office. Discussions under way with more outlets around the county.

Here’s what happens when you receive a copy of “Bells and Bikes” through your letterbox. This could be you! Order online at
