Practically every mountain biker has one or more goals for the season, whether it's to survive a stage race like the Cape Epic, a multi-day bike tour across the Alps or perhaps a high-alpine touring project. As different as these goals may be, they all have something in common: they require a certain amount of physical preparation, but it is also possible to fail to achieve the goal. And to be honest, isn't it more fun if you still have reserves on a tour instead of running on fumes?
Book protagonist Manni has similar goals, and authors Tim Böhme and Jochen Haar ride through the book with him. This is a holistic training guide that sheds light on far more than just training on the bike and explains the methods from A to Z in a good and understandable way. The work was supplemented with practical tips from Nino Schurter.
