If you're like most of us in the office, you're already planning your 2010 cycling adventures, so we thought that this might be a good time to offer a rundown of some of the free trip planning and how-to resources available on our website.
The Cyclists' Yellow Pages is our worldwide directory of bicycle resources for planning a bike trip of any length or duration. It is searchable, listing tour operators, bike shops, clubs, rentals, accommodations, and much more.
Our How-To Department and our Discussion Forums -- which boast over 4,000 users -- are great places for the cycling neophyte or seasoned bike tourist to get more info about how to improve their touring experience, or research an upcoming ride.
Adventure Cyclist's annual Touring Bike Buyer's Guide offers expert insight on procuring the best bike for your tour. The most recent, Q&A with the Technical Editor (PDF/924k) features conversations between John Schubert and Adventure Cyclist readers. Plus, the Buyer's Guide page allows you to access all of the Buyer's Guides from 1996 on, including some intriguing articles such as A History of Touring Bicycles (PDF/576k) by Jan Heine.
Select features from past issues of Adventure Cyclist are also available for free, offering hours of inspiration, nuts and bolts advice on specific adventures, gear reviews, and more.
See you out there!
