Product Description
Product Description
A guide to cycle touring in Ireland describing 12 one to two-week cycle tours for road bikes all around and across Ireland visiting Dublin, Belfast, Derry, Galway, Limerick, Kenmare and Cork. Ireland is a cyclists paradise - quiet roads winding along spectacular coastline, through tiny villages, over mountain passes and past countless historic sites. The routes described here cover Ireland and Northern Ireland from the Causeway Coast in the north to Mizen Head in the south and from Dublin in the east to Connemara in the west. They seek out the quiet, the quirky and the spectacular parts of this beautiful island in tours that can mostly be fitted into a single week's riding. The mountains, valleys and lakes are waiting, as are the hostels, camp sites and traditional Irish pubs - and this guide tells you all you need to know, whether you're a cycle touring novice or an old hand. Routes range from 250km to 500km with further suggestions for combining routes to make five grand tours and detailed route cards are provided, which can be followed junction by junction as you ride and list all facilities and sights along the way.
About the Author
When Tom Cooper decided to explore Ireland by bike, he couldn't find the guide book he wanted. So he set out to write this one to inspire and help cyclists to enjoy cycle touring in Ireland as much as he does. Tom has worked as a journalist and editor for newspapers in both England and Australia and this is his first guidebook.

Format:Paperback
A very detailed and thorough description of 12 routes round Ireland with clear and detailed maps. Each stage on the journey is broken down into what the terrain is like, distance and things to see and where to stay. An excellent book.

Format:Paperback
Never been on a cycle tour but planning one with the lads this Summer (June 2012). The book has lots of useful advise regarding bike types, equipment and what to expect.
It also has a variety of routes all over Ireland with basic maps and written experiences.
Cant really say how precise it is until I have been but it is very useful for gaining ideas and hopefully will help to guide me to a good few weeks of cycling
