Buy it and bike it., 17 Mar 2003
By E. Schlimmer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Biking the Arizona Trail: The Complete Guide to Day-Riding and Thru-Biking (Paperback)
I just got Andrea Lankford's guide and getting my hands on it is bittersweet: I love the book... but really could have used this guide a couple of months ago. In November and December of 2002 I became the first solo thru biker of the Arizona Trail (AZT) and the third thru biker ever. During my journey I relied on photocopied maps, second hand advice, and a crumpled road map-certainly not the thorough guidebook that is available today. Lankford supplies us long distance adventurers with a guide complete with accurate trail descriptions, exact mileage, humor, an easily readable text, maps, and photos. Lankford is truly adept at writing a guide after thru biking the AZT, thru hiking the 2160-mile Appalachian National Scenic Trail, and serving as a National Park Service EMT/Forest Ranger. They said Andrea Lankford and her partner Beth Overton could'nt hack this 800-mile mountain, canyon, plateau, and desert route, but they were wrong. And if anyone ever said that a great guide could not come out of their expedition, they were clearly incorrect as well. As being the only other person to bike this gorgeous and challenging trail besides Andrea Lankford's friend Beth, I can tell ya one thing for sure: this baby gets 5 stars.

Stellar Guidebook!, 22 Mar 2003
By Jeremy Deconcini - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Biking the Arizona Trail: The Complete Guide to Day-Riding and Thru-Biking (Paperback)
An Unbelievable book! Having biked parts of this trail myself, The attention to detail that Ms. Lankford has supplied is astouding! I have read many guidebooks covering many topics, and this is one of the best, from the mileage markers, to the detailed maps, to the great photos. Additionally, the book doubles as a great adventure story of two slightly crazy, but totally ambitious girls! I reccomend this book without hesitation.

outdated...:(, 27 Dec 2011

This review is from: Biking the Arizona Trail: The Complete Guide to Day-Riding and Thru-Biking (Paperback)
great book, lots of information, sadly when the book was written 20% of the trail was unfinished. The finished portions are great, but everything from General's Cabin to US60 is outdated, and needs an update...
Listmania!
