A second volume of photos from the archive of the oldest off-road cycling club in the world is a further look into an unseen corner of cycling, social history and outdoor culture. Since 1955 the members of the Rough-Stuff Fellowship - the world's oldest off-road cycling club - have explored the 'rough stuff' where the roads end. From tight thickets to sheer rock faces and the wide open spaces of the mountains, these pioneers of riding off the beaten track have recorded their adventures at home and abroad in stunning photos and ride reports.

This book offers a critical examination of existing cycling structures and the current policy and practices used to promote cycling. An international range of contributors provide an interdisciplinary analysis of the complex cultural politics of infrastructural provision and interrogate the pervasive bias against cyclists in city planning and transport systems across the globe. Infrastructural planning is revealed to be an intensely political act and its meaning variable according to larger political processes and contexts. The book also considers questions surrounding safety and risk, urban space wars and sustainable futures, connecting this to broader questions about citizenship and justice in contemporary cities.
