Just finishing reading Lee Craigies book and really enjoyed the mix of adventure, life story and life advice mix.

Ive also enjoyed Emily Chappels and Jenny Grahams books.

Wondered if people had recommendations for other inspiring books?

Doesn’t have to be cycling related but particularly interested with those that may inspire me to get out and be more active (and even adventurous!)

I enjoyed this, partly maybe because they are local, and came and did a little presentation about the trip for our club.

Josie Dews books are a bit more "normal person rides bikes".

Anything by Jill Homer. A writer/journalist first, endurance athlete later.

The about page from her substack is a good intro:  https://jilloutside.substack.com/about

Dervla Murphy - Full Tilt - Ireland to India on a bike.
She's an absolute legend and a great read.

Clear Waters Rising by Nick Crane is a good read. It must be the first of the genre trust I ever read

Adventures in Mind by Heather Dawe. I’m biased because I know her slightly but it really is good.
