Written for the novice and veteran cyclist alike, this second edition of
the best-selling The Long Distance Cyclists' Handbook contains
everything you need to know to ride your bicycle farther than the end of
your driveway. From selecting the correct bicycle, accessories,
clothing, and gear, to maintenance, on-the-road repairs, bicycle safety,
and nutrition and training techniques, it details all the preparation
and equipment needed to successfully complete a thirty-mile charity ride
or the 3,000-mile Race Across America.
