Useful cycle touring links (post yours here)

[Bigtallfatbloke]

I thought it would be fun to put up links to sites we find interesting/useful relating to cycle touring. I am learning lot's from the adventures of others and as a 'beginner' I am grateful to sites like this:

http://www.adventure-cycling-guide.co.uk/index.htm

for helping me.

If uou know any cool sites like this why not post them up here...it would make a good reference all cycle tourers i feel.

I find Ken Kifer’s Bike pages inspirational. Especially when I need reminding that it’s not about talking and equipment or even talking about equipment.

Ken Kifer was killed by a drunk driver in 2003. It was a long time before I could look at his website again. Thankfully it’s still there, a fitting way to remember him.

Of course www.crazyguyonabike.com should be here...Ah I just noticed Cathryn has already called that one.
I've been following Andrew and Friedel's tour with interest the last few months, nice site. They used to post on C+ as 'alittlecrazy', would be nice to see them here, but I don't think they've made it yet.

I wrote the Adventure Cycling Guide, so I am chuffed some one likes it. One of my favourite sites is http://www.mark-ju.net/. It's Mark and Ju Maclean's account of ride from the UK to New Zealand and it's full of useful information and some very idiosyncratic devices put together by Mark.

There's a huge amount of sensible advice on this web-site IMHO

Thanks for the link, Brock. It's so nice to know people are reading along. We spend a lot of time updating the site but don't get so many emails so when someone mentions they like what we do, it's really a good feeling

This is another good resource site:

And we have many favourite links here, at the bottom of the page:
