Reviews
‘This
pocket-sized book documents the big ride – split into four sections:
each section including detailed directions, stunning photography, as
well as information on points of interest along the route – bringing the
history and landscape of the trail to life.’ --
Tim Wiggins, Life in the Saddle
‘You
could easily navigate the entire route quite successfully using only
this book with no electronic devices or additional maps, which must
surely be a measure of how good any guidebook is. Whether you’re
planning to ride the route in its entirety, as a series of day rides or
simply fancy a little exploring, then it’ll be a worthwhile addition to
your bookshelf.’ --
