- Adventure Cycle Touring Handbook – exactly what it says
- A Bike Journey – website by Freddie & Guy
- Rolling Tales – website by Justin & Emma
- Travelling Two – website by Friedel & Andrew
- Ride on the World – website by Loic & Bertrand
- Sheldon Brown – technical bike information by the man himself
- Trento Bike Pages – directory of cycle touring websites
- crazyguyonabike – directory of cycle touring websites
- Can I drink the water? - the tap water situation in each country
- The Man in Seat 61 – the greatest train information site out there
- Warmshowers – hospitality site for touring cyclists
- Couchsurfing – hospitality site for travellers
We’ll add to this list as and when we come across new stuff we think you’d find useful.
