Great Rides According to G (Hardback)

If you’ve ever wondered where pro cyclists actually love to ride, this book takes you straight onto the wheels of one of Britain’s biggest cycling stars. From the rugged one‑day classics of the Peak District and Snowdonia to the sun‑drenched roads of Tuscany and the jaw‑dropping landscapes of New Zealand’s South Island, these are the routes that shaped his career — and the ones he still can’t get enough of.

You’ll roll out with him from his winter base in the south of France, spin through the Tuscan hills where he trained as a young GB hopeful, and revisit the valley roads of the Tour de Suisse — which he famously won in 2022. There are the sweeping coastal bends of Milan–San Remo, the long training days in Mallorca, and the bone‑rattling cobbles of Belgium.

The journey goes global too: vineyards around Adelaide, blue‑sky miles in southern California, and wide‑open roads that make you want to ride forever.

And it’s not just his story. Guest rides from world champion Remco Evenepoel in Calpe, Olympic and world champion Tom Pidcock in Yorkshire, and sprint star Sam Bennett in wild western Ireland add even more flavour. It’s a collection of the rides pros actually choose when they’re not racing — the ones that remind them why they fell in love with cycling in the first place.
