The Finishers

ISBN: 9780500025079
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A glorious photographic record of the superhumans who have completed the Barkley Marathons, one of the most mythical running races on earth. It is a race like no other: There is no website to take entries; participants are selected from those who find a way to submit written applications and a $1.60 entry fee; only around 40 people are chosen to run, with condolences from the race director. The course, based in the Cumberland Mountains of Tennessee, takes place amid unforgiving landscapes and harsh vegetation, often in horrendous conditions with poor visibility. Runners must complete five 20-mile loops - those who manage to complete only three laps are deemed to have achieved the 'fun run' - with a total elevation climb equal to two ascents of Mount Everest. Since 1986, only 15 people have ever finished. This exceptional publication celebrates their unbelievable achievements. Until relatively recently, the event was known only by true insiders, but with the increasing popularity of trail running and the race's inaccessibility to anyone except the participants and a handful of media, it has attained mythical status. Thanks to ultrarunning photographer Alexis Berg and L'Équipe journalist Aurélien Delfosse, we now have a record of these superhumans - many of whom are unknown in sporting circles - who have completed the race. Crisscrossing the United States to meet each finisher, Berg and Delfosse travelled from New Hampshire to Oregon via New Mexico, Colorado, California and Utah, capturing stunning photographs and in-depth interviews with the finishers. These stories inspire awe, respect and reflection at the limit of the human spirit.

How to Build a Fiberglass Car
Author: Floyd Clymer
Publisher: Valueguide
ISBN: 9781588500984
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 90
Book Description
The original contributors, W. I. Boyce-Smith, Edmond Kelly and Hugh Jorgensen, all played a significant role in the design, development and construction of the fiberglass bodied VICTRESS sports car. While the technology of constructing impact resistant lightweight automobile bodies has advanced considerably since this book was first published, many of the exotic materials and composites in use today are beyond the capabilities available to the average home-based "special" builder. However, this comprehensive and informative book, written in easy to understand language, puts the capability of designing and building a custom bodied special within reach of the home-based enthusiast. The principles it contains are just as relevant today as they were some 50 years ago when this book was first written. The design process is clearly explained, the raw materials required are described, and the construction process is presented in an easy-to-follow step by step procedure. Obviously, this book would also be a valuable reference for anyone contemplating repairing, refurbishing or restoring a fiberglass bodied automobile. This edition also includes a 40 page bonus section featuring reproductions of VICTRESS sales literature. Out-of-print and unavailable for many years, this book is becoming increasingly more difficult to find on the secondary market and we are pleased to be able to offer this reproduction as a service to all those automotive "special" builders and enthusiasts worldwide.

Speed and How to Obtain It
Author: J. E. G. Harwood
Publisher: Veloce Enterprises, Incorporated
ISBN: 9781588501479
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
184 pages, 64 black & white illustrations, size 5.5 x 8.5 inches. Originally published by Lliffe & Sons of London UK in 1925, this is a faithful reproduction of the 8th impression 1962 Floyd Clymer U.S.A. Edition published under special arrangement with Lliffe. From its initial introduction in 1925 'Speed and How to Obtain It' subsequently progressed through a number of editions and impressions and ultimately became one of the best selling motorcycle 'tune up' books ever. The 'dated information' contained in this publication is considered valuable today by those enthusiasts interested in vintage motorcycle racing, tuning and modification. Consequently, this makes the 1962 8th impression the most complete and desirable edition of this book. While predominantly a technical work, it is written in terms easily understood by the layman. To paraphrase the author, "This book is intended for the man whose technical knowledge is not on a par with his skills as a mechanic." Obviously, the primary focus of this publication is on 1960's and prior British motorcycles. However, the reader is reminded that engineering theory and the laws of physics do not change and as such, much of the information is also applicable to the current crop of high revving imports. In addition, there is a comprehensive section on modifying the two-stroke engine for both street and competition work. 'Speed and How to Obtain It' is considered by many knowledgeable motorcycle enthusiasts to be one of the better books ever written on how to improve, modify and fine tune a vintage British motorcycle engine. Therefore, it is our pleasure to offer this reprint to vintage British motorcycle enthusiasts worldwide.
