  Bikepacking Wales by Emma Kingston contains 18 great multi-day mountain bike adventures.
  For such a compact country, Wales has a fantastic variety of trails to explore. Explore the world-class tracks around the remote Elan Valley, traverse the long, grassy ridges of the Brecon Beacons, enjoy the stunning coastal bridleways along the Gower peninsula, tackle the popular Trans Cambrian Way across Mid Wales, ride the heather-lined singletrack in the Clywdian Hills, and take a tour around the highest mountain in Wales and England – Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) – including an optional route to its summit. The trails aren't the only draw though; these routes take you under towering castle walls, through huge slate quarries and past some of the country's prehistoric monuments so you can better appreciate Wales's rich culture and heritage.
  Each route includes all the information you need to help you plan your ride, including points of interest along the route, swimming spots, food recommendations and accommodation options, in addition to stunning photography and overview mapping. Downloadable GPX files of the routes are also available, including optional routes and shortcuts. This book is full of practical tips and essential advice for both experienced bikepackers and those who want to try it out for the first time.
  Let Bikepacking Wales be your companion as you take to the trails to experience the finest bikepacking adventures that Wales has to offer.

  31 Days - A zero-bullsh*t...

  'I love Allie Bailey – she has the unique ability to make you feel like anything is possible when it comes to running.' – Bryony Gordon 
   
  31 Days follows up on ultrarunner Allie Bailey’s searingly honest autobiography There is No Wall. 
   
  It takes the final chapter of that book which was the self-help rant you didn’t think you were buying and supercharges it, creating something relatable and tangible that you can actually take into your day-to-day life and make a lasting difference. While There is No Wall clearly said running won’t save you, perhaps this book will, with its zero-bullsh*t approach to mindset mentoring, and tools and exercises that enable you to do the work and create incredible results. 
   
  Whatever it is you’re struggling with – running, career, relationship – Allie draws on her lived experience as an award-winning coach, runner, depressive and recovering alcoholic, to show you how you can change things in yourself that you didn’t think it was possible to change. And not just for one training block, one race or for a few weeks, but for the rest of your life. 
   
  Split into thirty-one easy-to-digest chapters – one a day – it is a handbook, a companion on a journey with no end. But be warned, this book contains no quick fixes – it is down to you to do the work. 
  It’s never too late to change, you’re not ‘just the way you are’, and it’s never too late to tell that doubting voice you have lived with for decades to kindly go f@*k itself. 
   
  Are you ready to begin?

  From established sports journalist Ben Hunt, the very first biography of the up-and-coming British driver Lando Norris, published on the brink of the British Grand Prix.
  
  As the youngest ever British Formula 1 driver, Lando Norris is trailblazing his way through the world of motor racing. After signing as a junior driver for McLaren in 2017, he has since asserted himself as the team's brightest talent and an aspiring world champion.
  
  Born to British and Belgian parents and raised in the idylls of south-west England, Lando's childhood reflects how even the calmest of upbringings can create an adrenaline junkie. As one of a new cohort of young drivers seeking to assert their dominance in the sport, Lando is a uniquely modern sportsman, who celebrates learning and personal development, but who nonetheless has the killer instinct required to take him to the very pinnacle of F1.
  
  In Lando Norris, motor sport aficionado and journalist Ben Hunt draws on his extensive driver and paddock access to seek to understand what makes Lando tick and examines how this young British driver has been well and truly raised in the mould of a champion.
