My first Cycle Touring Primer was released fifteen years ago. While there was a good update in the earlier part of the teens, now is time for a major refresh!

Are you itching to hit the open road and explore the world in a way you haven't yet? Are you a regular bicycle rider but have never taken a bicycle tour? The Cycle Touring Primer is for you! This guide is about the basics of self-supported touring where you carry all your gear on your bike. Included are the basics: planning, equipment, camping info, day-to-day life on the road, and plenty of tips.

The Primer features a full-color cover and 76 interior black and white pages. The A6 (approx. 4.1" x 5.8") will make it a true pocket companion.

"(Shawn) Granton’s guide is handmade, small, and has a number of excellent tips and tricks for those of you who want to start traveling by bicycle."
