The Long Distance
Cyclists' Handbook
By Simon Doughty
Globe Pequot Press - 2001
ISBN 1-58574-526-X
216 pages
This book is similar in intent to the Burke/Pavelka
offering. Although the version I know is revised for the US market,
its frame of reference is distance cycling in the UK. There are
dedicated sections on randonneur cycling and PBP, and lots of
photos from PBP and other brevets. Like the Burke/Pavelka book
I have no hesitation recommending this for both the beginning
and experience ultra cyclist. There is one copy of this book
in the Vancouver Public Library system. [Eric F. March 2006] |
