More and more cyclists are testing the limits of their endurance. Metric centuries are giving way to century rides. Century rides turn into double metrics. Double metrics are turning into double centuries—and many riders take it even farther than that.
The definitive text to help you prepare and execute a long-distance ride is Distance Cycling: Your Complete Guide to Long-Distance Rides by John Hughes and Dan Kehlenbach. The 260-page book leaves no stone unturned in gathering information for distance cyclists of all levels of experience and skill.
This book is written to aid cyclists who are looking to tackle long-distance rides ranging from 100K metric centuries to 1,200K brevets and beyond (though a large portion of the book is dedicated to 100-mile century rides and 124-mile double metrics).
