    Wild Cycling: A pocket guide to 50 great rides off the beaten track in Britain

    Chris Sidwells

    Formats & Editions

    'A wildly inspiring adventure - from armchair to saddle.'Nichiless 'A lovely concise guide.'A. W. Baird

    Here is plenty of inspiration for anyone who loves to ride off road and get out into the wild and stunning scenery of the British mainland. Each route suggests further routes and the book as a whole introduces the wild cyling potential of a range of different locations.

    These natural routes to wild places link country lanes, green lanes, bridleways, towpaths, trails and often ancient ways between places.

    The book is illustrated in colour and each ride includes an annotated route map and ride profile, also OS grid references. And a fact file gives further indispensable details, including an indication of how hard each ride is, and how wild.

    From Chalk Cliffs and Curious Sound Mirrors in the south-east to Cape Wrath in the north-west, the purity, beauty and essential wildness of these rides will ensure that over the years many of them will become classic, even legendary cycling challenges.
