Cycling Plus  |  Summer 2019
In this bumper summer issue of Cycling Plus we bring you our guide to the 2019 Tour de France, detailing the route, the teams and the contenders. We also take a closer look at some of the jaw-dropping superbikes that will feature on the roads of France this July beneath the world's best cyclists.
In our regular mag, we chat to Britain's first Tour winner, Sir Bradley Wiggins, about the future of British cycling and the role he wants to play in delivering another champion from these shores.
Elsewhere, we pit Specialized's racy new Roubaix against its benchmark Tarmac to see which is faster, and test six bikes that between them should cover every commute and do plenty more besides. We rate 16 sets of pedals that will help you deliver power to your cranks in comfort, and look at how you can save money and keep your bike on the road by completing simple maintenance tasks by yourself.
We also go riding on 200km of gravel forest roads in Northumberland, and tackle the historic route that spawned off-road riding 100 years ago by following in the mountainous wheel tracks of the Wayfarer in north Wales.
