In 2008 Sean Conway set off on a 1,000 mile bike ride that would shape the next 10 years of his life, as he became obsessed with the idea of becoming a real ultra cyclist. This is his story, how he tried and failed many times to break a cycling world record, and the story about his final world record attempt, cycling 4,000 miles across Europe. Sean nearly gave up on his dream after tragically losing two of his ultra cycling friends, but decided to continue in their honor with his quest to chase big miles on two wheels. Sean looks back at some of his cycling heroes and heroines and the boom in ultra cycling over the last decade.

Sean’s stories kept me wanting to hear more. I loved hearing about the high and lows of each day on the road, imagining myself exactly where he was, except Russian roads, yikes. My favorite supporting character was Pedro. Congrats to Sean on this great achievement, the ride and the book.

Great book when on an a road trip.

I felt like Sean had a unique perspective, and I liked how he mentioned other cyclists. Before I finished, I ordered Mark Beaumont’s book.

I'm a life long cyclist who is just now getting interested in the idea of endurance cycling... or "Big Mile Cycling". This was a great listen, will probably give it another listen soon.

Loved listening to this adventure. Well done Sean. An amazing challenge and a story of overcoming adversity time and time again to achieve the goal and beating the record. However, what happened to Pedro?
