THE FOLLOWING IS FROM STEPHEN LORD'S ADVENTURE CYCLING HANDBOOK
WEBSITE:
"The Adventure Cycling Handbook is an adventure cycling guidebook
published by Trailblazer
publications of the UK.
The Adventure Cycling Handbook is not just another bicycle touring book;
it’s oriented towards adventure riding in places the old books would not
often take you to. It’s a look at contemporary bike touring and the kind
of bikes people actually ride rather than just traditional touring
bikes, fine though those often are. And it has many different
experiences and viewpoints represented, through the contributions of
riders from all over the world, writing about their bikes and about the
places they have toured. The accent is very much on riding the
Developing World rather than familiar bike-touring routes in Western
Europe or elsewhere.
Whether you are new to riding and thinking of making your own Grand Tour
or a more experienced touring biker looking to venture out, the
Adventure Cycling Handbook should have something of interest for you.
Very much travel-oriented rather than just a manual, the Adventure
Cycling Handbook goes beyond the mundane and often off the paved road to
the places today’s bikers are interested in."
