- Nathan Ward's "How to Mountain Bike Tour on Singletrack" offers specific suggestions on what to bring on the trail; his advice is based on his experiences with several previous single track mountain bike tours in the wilderness.

- Denver Post staff writer Jack Cox's "Ride early and often to prepare for a bike tour" is a story with tips explaining how to condition your body for grueling long distance tours such as the 2007 Denver Post Ride The Rockies (an annual bike tour that covers 400+ miles of mountain riding in a week).
