This early guide is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. A concise look at the early days of racing, it will prove of great interest to the present day cyclist and historian of the sport. Illustrated with black and white drawings. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
