FredCast 113 Preview – Ride of Your Life

This week’s episode of The FredCast will feature an interview with long distance cyclist and author David Rowe as part of his virtual book tour for his new eBook, The Ride of Your Life. The eBook provides guidance to sport-recreational road cyclists on how to choose smart goals and then apply the author’s unique process for achieving them. The eBook was released January 8 by RoadBikeRider.com, and went straight to the top of its best-seller chart.

A virtual book tour is when an author visits websites, blogs, and podcasts instead of bookstores, cafés, radio and TV shows that a traditional brick-and-mortar tour would include. During each stop of the Ride of Your Life eTour, Rowe will discuss how riders can prepare mentally for completing rides of 100 or more miles in a single day. He will also describe his experiences riding some of the great long distance events held in the Pacific Northwest, including the Cascade 1200, the Rocky Mountain 1200, and the Portland to Glacier 1000.

In addition to his new eBook and virtual book tour, David Rowe is collecting stories from readers who overcame physical, mental, or equipment challenges to finish a challenging ride. He is going to publish a compilation of the best stories in a forthcoming eBook, which he will make available free in the Spring of this year. Riders’ whose stories are selected for publication will win a free eBook.
