About the book

'A unique and funny writer with a true understanding of what it takes to make it as an elite cyclist' Chris Boardman 'As if Bill Bryson had taken to two wheels'

Financial Times 'Hutchinson proves as good a writer as he is rider – congenial, funny and insightful'

Guardian 'Michael Hutchinson takes an inhuman sport and makes it deliciously, wonderfully, wickedly human' Ned Boulting

Further sees former professional cyclist Michael Hutchinson immerse himself in the world of ultra-distance bike racing. Speaking to some of the best athletes in the world, as well as sports scientists, psychologists and nutritionists, he discovers what some of the toughest events in sport demand – both physically and mentally.

He experiences hallucinations, emotional meltdowns and a depth of physical exhaustion he never thought possible. But he also bears witness to the profound pleasures of the long ride – the joy of crossing a continent under your own power, and the wonders of discovering what you're truly capable of. And as he takes on one of the hardest events in the cycling calendar, he might just find out for himself the miseries and the glories of going all the way to the edge, and maybe just a little bit further…
