Drawing on extensive ethnographic, qualitative, and quantitative research, this monograph presents a novel account of masculinities in an individual sport: competitive road cycling. Chapters present varied analyses on male cyclists' relationships with masculinity, the culture of competitive road cycling, cyclists' attitudes toward injury management, sexual minority and women's experiences in the sport, and autoethnographic accounts of the authors' own experiences of being involved in the sport for over ten years. The author also examines how masculinity impacts male cyclists' attitudes toward competition, risk-taking, and doping practices.
This book will be of interest to scholars and researchers in sports sociology, gender studies, and masculinity studies.
