The Cycling Bible is an essential reference for those new to cycling as well as the everyday rider, those riding for fitness or interested in road racing, as well as for mountain bike enthusiasts. From practical maintenance to safety and skills, it is a complete, user-friendly guide with step-by-step diagrams and helpful color photos, providing readers with all the knowledge they need to get the most out of their bike and their rides.

Beginning with the anatomy of the bicycle, readers will discover how to get the right size and fit for them. There is guidance on buying essential gear, including female-specific gear. Practical tips and detailed explanations provide the confidence to tackle repair jobs along with tutorials on skills and techniques from negotiating city streets to off-road riding. For those who want to take riding a pedal further, a month-by-month racing calendar and a guide to racing etiquette encourage readers to develop new skills. An international touring section recommends the world's riding hot spots, features family-friendly routes, tracks the great road races, and explores the breathtaking scenery of the top mountain-bike meccas.
