Independent Cycle Touring

By Piaw Na

Written for experienced cyclists who have done many day rides and organized events, Independent Cycle Touring is skill focused. It covers imporant skills about touring that few other books consider: - How do you select your cycling companions? - When you're in a bookstore looking over maps, how do you know which is the map to buy? - Once you've gotten a map, how do you use it to find the best possible routes for cycling? - How do you use GPS navigation devices for maximum effect? This book includes practical tips on planning your trip, tour preparation, equipment checklists, and an extensive country guide for cyclists looking to tour. Four rider profiles round out the book, providing examples of real cycle tourists doing what they love best.
