The Road Cyclist's Companion

Cycling has its own little world of quirks, rules, and unspoken rituals — and if you’re moving from casual riding into group rides, club runs, or even races, it can feel like stepping into a secret society. The Road Cyclist’s Companion is your no‑nonsense guide to navigating it all with confidence.

This book breaks down the essentials every serious rider should know: how to choose the right frame, what kit actually matters, how to ride smoothly in a group, and the dos and don’ts of pacelines, bunch etiquette, and club culture. It’s packed with clear advice on technique, training, equipment, and the unwritten rules that keep group riding safe, fast, and fun.

Beautifully put together and easy to dip into, The Road Cyclist’s Companion is perfect for anyone looking to level up their riding, avoid rookie mistakes, and feel at home in the bunch.
