Pick the right bicycle for your travels and youll be sure to come home with those wonderful bicycle touring memories youve been dreaming about. But pick the wrong bicycle and your trip could be over before it has even had a chance to begin.

The Essential Guide To Touring Bicycles is a short, descriptive book designed to teach you about:

• The features, components and characteristics that are unique to touring bicycles.
• The five main styles of touring bikes.
• The different metals used in touring bicycle frames (and why they are so important).

Written by Bicycle Touring Pro, Darren Alff, The Essential Guide To Touring Bicycles is a book that every cyclist should read before purchasing a touring bicycle of any kind.

This is a book for people who are totally new to touring bicycles - not a book for experienced bicycle riders.

CONDUCT THE BICYCLE TOUR OF YOUR DREAMS

The dream you are likely having involves going on a bicycle tour and having magical experiences you will remember for the rest of your life. Experiences so incredible you will tell your friends and family about them for years to come.

The reality, however, might be that you never complete your bike tour, because you picked the wrong touring bicycle a bicycle that wasnt built for the kind of bike tour you were participating in and you were unable to return home with those magical memories you were hoping for.

What many first-time bicycle tourists dont realize is that there are several different types of bicycles made for bicycle touring. There are touring bicycles made for short day trips around your home; fast, sporty touring bicycles made for racing and light touring; and an entire separate breed of touring bicycles made to carry you and your gear all the way around the world. Plus, there are bicycles made for all kinds of other types of bike rides (that arent designed for bicycle touring at all).
