You might’ve read our book Bike Life and thought: ‘I’d love to travel by bike as well but…’ fill in the blank. Well… we’ve created a new book that’ll show you that regardless of personal circumstance(s), there’s a way for you to travel by bike too.
And it’s called 50 Ways to Cycle the World.
Want to know what it’s like to cycle alone, with a dog or a cat, with kids, or strangers met on the road? How to travel by tandem, folding bicycle, e-bike or on a bamboo frame? Or simply in need of that last little push over the doorstep, inspired by those who’ve seen the world by bike. With over 400 distinctive questions and answers, we’re sure 50 Ways will tell you exactly what you need to hear in order to overcome whatever is holding you back from traveling by bicycle.
The profits of the sale of signed copies will be donated to a selected bicycle-oriented non-profit, such as Warmshowers.

“Not knowing much about bicycle touring, I simply started by digging through touring forums online to get an idea of suitable destinations and the gear required. With an appetite for rough, mountainous terrain I ended up with a shortlist including the Pamir Highway, the Karakoram Highway in Pakistan and the Peru Great Divide.”
— Daniel Weststeyn
“I got caught up in all the traps of a ‘normal’ life: a mortgage, a job that took far too many hours of my day, the need to save money for fear of being poor at old age... It was exhausting, but one day good fortune knocked on my door—it was the right time to set off.”
— Blanca Fernández
above all, it INCLUDES the answers to why you should try traveling by bike yourself.
“I think that everyone who is about to embark on a big adventure has some kind of fear. But rather than being limited by it, you can choose to face it.”
