This is a first class cycling book on all the amazing classic climbs that have challenged the very best cyclists in history. The quality of this book is excellent, with full color whenever possible, and pictures of many top riders of the day, challenging their skill and endurance to overcome the almost impossible. This is the very best book that I have ever seen, and is second to none.
Beautiful book. Great job!
A perfectly produced album. A quality that most publishers can only dream of. It reads beautifully. The quality of the photos and the thickness of the paper make an Iphone or iPad go away. It's a completely different reading experience.
I got to know many of these places during ski expeditions, but never looked at them from the side of cycling and big races... I am delighted and happier with each page. You have awakened in me a new passion and a goal to pursue, thank you very much. I recommend to everyone.
The quality of the album knocks you out. Beautiful photos, rich descriptions. I recommend 100%, perfect for a coffee table, a gift for a cycling enthusiast, inspiration for cycling trips.
The book is beautiful. Plan for some pass on holiday in Cortina! 🙂
A beautifully produced album, from which you can smell the mountains, feel the rays of the scorching sun and gentle gusts of wind. Looking at the fantastic photos and reading about the climbs, one thought comes to mind - riding over these passes on a trainer is not that. You have to go there and see it for yourself. And let the tyres of your bike feel the real ‘there’ asphalt underneath.
Following last years first ride into the French Alpes, I participated in the Stelvio Gran Fondo in 2024. This got me wanting more, and I ran into this book. It's an awesome outline of all great, renowned (and lesser) climbs. It's a great list for me to explore and determine my next goals. The photos are stunning and the facts interesting. Great for displaying at home as well. 5/5
The book Reaching the clouds is just perfect. I just got mine, and absolutely love it. I’m so grateful that you made this. A perfect bucket list for me. It smells from every single page, that this book was written by cyclists to cyclists
The album is sensational! Beautifully produced and great content - the descriptions are really engaging and you can go back to them over and over again, and the photos capture the atmosphere of the places perfectly. 10/10, I recommend it not only to cycling fans! 🙂
A very cool publication. Lots of facts and interesting descriptions. A big plus and thanks for the express shipping.
