Mountain Biking At Its Best,
By
This review is from: North York Moors Mountain Biking: Moorland Trails (Paperback)
This is a superb guide book. Written by someone who clearly knows his stuff, the routes are clearly and concisely described and the mapping is excellent, being proper OS maps. The routes cover everything from a quick after-work blast to epic all day killers. They take in some of the North Yorkshire Moors' finest scenery, have plenty of ups, plenty of downs and cover many of the best bits of singletrack to be found in this area. What you won't find in the book are too many scarily technical descents (though there's plenty to test your skill and nerve) or a lot of man-made forest sections - for the most part it's open moorland and stunning vistas. The routes take in many of the area's most famous landmarks, tracks, villages and dales, some of which are amongst the most tranquil places you could find.The proof of the pudding is in the riding, and I've ridden almost all of these routes and can say that you'd be hard-pressed to find better ones. An added bonus is the list of refreshment stops to be found on or near the routes. A nice cup of tea and a scone after a hard day in the saddle is always appreciated.

Great guidebook,
This review is from: North York Moors Mountain Biking: Moorland Trails (Paperback)
I bought this book looking for an introduction to the area after having bought other guide books from the same publisher. Haven't been disappointed at all. As a rider of intermediate skill, I appreciate the balanced descriptions of the challenges on each route and I can be well prepared for any bits I may feel more comfortable walking if not riding at my best. There is a good mix of routes, both in length and in level of challenge, plus good clear mapping based on the OS maps so the routes are easy to follow. I like the way the routes are set out - a brief introduction with a tempting picture of the ride, the map and then good, clear instructions for the route itself. The grading seems about right as well to give an overall feel for the route.It has served well as an introduction to the area and served as a spark for exploring a few tracks not mentioned in the book. Glad I bought it.

Excellent,
By
This review is from: North York Moors Mountain Biking: Moorland Trails (Paperback)
A well written book that's easy to follow. The routes are clearly defined on the os maps within. The range and amount of routes is also very good. The size of the book is just right to fit into the side pocket of a rucksack.
