The Ultimate Scottish Cycling Book
This volume deals with cycle-touring in Scotland. Much more than just a set of directions, the author's own experience on each route is described in an entertaining narrative, and detailed route information is featured to allow readers to follow the routes for themselves. The commentary accompanying every route in this book should inspire readers to set off and get to know Scotland both on and off the beaten track. Through following any of these routes, cyclists will encounter events and places that have played an important but lesser-known role in the bigger Scottish picture. The routes take in everything one would expect from a holiday in Scotland but reveal unexpected little-known gems in addition. SUSTRANS have filled in crucial gaps in the quiet roads with dedicated cycle paths and the awareness amongst the tourist industry of the needs of cyclists has never been higher. Every aspect of travelling with a bike is covered and each route is carefully constructed to make the cyclist feel safe and remove the need for expensive and inconvenient car hire. It features nine of the best routes that cyclists of any level will find possible and enjoyable.
