Great Book!
I really enjoyed reading Sigridâs Ride. Itâs a honest and true story of the journey Travis and Sigrid made from the US to the Uk and their adventures as they travel around London and the UK on their fixed bike. They share some of their daily rides and the various important causes they support as they navigate the pandemic and life after it. I will keeping following them on Facebook and hope that another book comes out that shares even more of their adventures.

Wonderful Read!
Sigrid Rides is a heartwarming and deeply touching book that’s left a lasting impression on me. What moved me most about Sigrid Rides was the portrayal of courage in the face of adversity by the author, Travis Nelson. His love for Sigrid (and her adopted sister, Ylva) is inspiring. At this point in time, I’ve read it twice. It is a gift to the reader.

Sigrid supports Travis in the most beautiful ways.
Travis coped with life’s challenges in the best ways….with outdoor activity and his bestest bud, Siggi. A wonderful life of adventure that Siggi clearly loves! So happy for them both. Sigrid is living her best life and gives such happiness not only to Travis but everyone she comes in contact with. She’s the QUEEN.

Heartwarming story
I have been following Travis and Sigrid on Facebook for years. I think I was one of the very first people to buy his book. The special relationship he has with Sigrid is so unique and inspirational. It certainly shows that both human and cats can overcome significant adversity in their lives. I was really hoping for this book to make the NY Times bestseller list.

The inspirational story behind the short social media videos
This heartwarming book takes you on a journey through the bustling streets of London, as Travis finds solace and healing from his depression through daily bike rides with his beloved Norwegian Forest cat, Sigrid.Travis beautifully captures the magic and wonder of their rides, as deaf Sigrid sits contently in the basket of the bicycle, bringing joy to the people they encounter along the way. Whether they pass them on the street, visit them in a school for the deaf or drop into a business, Sigi and Travis spread happiness and friendship in these often-isolating times.Overall, Sigrid Rides is a delightful and uplifting read that will warm your heart and remind you of the powerful connection between a human and a feline companion. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a heartwarming and inspiring read.

If you follow Travis and Sigi religiously on Insta then this book is for you. As a devoted follower of this wonderful pair, I read this book and wasnât disappointed. Travis is very open and honest about his mental health struggles and this is a story of hope and success all from his wonderful partnership with Sigi. This book is for all cat lovers/owners who will understand the special bond with these amazing animals.

Travis provides a clear sighted and hopeful description of his life and the beautiful bond he has with Sigrid. I joined his patreon after enjoying some of his videos because I love cats. His description of his struggles with mental health is the most realistic I’ve ever read. For once I saw someone say that depression isn’t something you just get over. Now I don’t feel like a freak for not recovering from the depression I’ve struggled with all my life. Thank you Travis for this and the pleasure you and Sigrid bring to the world.
