Conquista, Issue 19

Conquista is an independent quarterly journal celebrating all aspects of cycling sport & culture by means of the very best in journalism & photography.

Conquista represents a like-minded, interactive community, built around cycling and its lifestyle. You will find our home at conquista.cc – a regularly updated website, featuring shorter form articles & features. Our most pertinent musings are distilled into a quarterly publication, available as a digital download and in beautiful, high quality, perfect bound print.

We celebrate beautiful photography & embrace the principles of slow journalism, bringing in-depth comment & analysis after the 24 hour news agenda has moved-on and the dust has settled. We also indulge in more off -beat features, exploring all cycling disciplines from every corner of the globe.

Conquista will NOT give you . . .

• Race reports or results
• Nutritional advice (except, of course, involving coffee, beer or cake)
• Training tips for your next ‘gran fondo’
• ‘Ripped abs’ in just 6 weeks

In this issue:

From the iconic style of Team Peugeot to the eye-watering bulges of Lycra Dad; from the back of the pack at Red Hook Crit Brooklyn to the front of the field at the Isle of Man Youth Tour; from the dirty brown roads of Strade Bianche to the clean, green hills of Itzulia; from Jordan to the Cape to Girona, it really is Conquista’s world.
