For the best adventures, use the best map. Our latest hiking
research on Tenerife has resulted in new editions of Walk! Tenerife
and Tenerife Hikers' Super-Durable Maps. Thanks to Jan Kostura's
research we have several new hiking adventures described in detail
in Walk! Tenerife. Jan's gps records of his research for new routes
and updating of current routes has provided the detailed
information to produce our new fourth edition of Tenerife Hiker's
Super-Durable Maps.Note that Tenerife Hikers' Super-Durable Maps is
a collection of four 30k scale map sections on a double sided sheet
of 840mm by 600mm which folds up to 220mm by 120mm. It is not a map
of all of Tenerife. You will find 30k scale maps covering Valle de
Orotava, West, Anaga and Adeje/Arona - Teide printed on a double
sided map sheet. We have combined two previous maps into a single
map section; El Portillo and Valle de Orotava (and all the area
between) is now a single map section covering the Orotava Valley
from Aguamansa to beyond El Portillo and it also includes 4 new
walking routes from Walk! Tenerife (2017) including the GR131 El
Portillo to La Caldera, and two ascents of Montana Limon.Our 'Las
Canadas-Adeje/Arona' map is now extended northwards beyond Teide so
it now also includes Pico del Teide, Montana Blanca, Pico Viejo and
Montana Rajada as well as the full Las Canadas crater. The 'West'
map includes the latest TF-1 road along with the rerouting of three
walking routes in this region. Not a lot changes in the Anaga
except that Jan's research has produced three new hiking routes;
Igueste - Chamorga, Igueste - Semaforo, and Cruz del Carmen - Punta
del Hidalgo.Tenerife Hikers' Super-Durable Maps is produced using
our 'Tour & Trail' level of detail ranging from major roads to
secondary roads to minor roads to streets and camino rural narrow
country roads, plus dirt roads and walking trails.Altitude
background colouring is designed to clearly show the altitude range
when travelling across the regions by car or on foot. 100 metre and
50 metre contours are clearly shown on the map along with a large
number of individual height points and all of the official 'Trig'
points. Our useful symbol range includes miradors, picnic areas,
petrol stations, bar/restaurants and parking areas where you can
pull off the road safely. You will easily identify springs, caves,
sports grounds, cemeterys, churchs, chapels, lighthouses, towers
and forts, camping areas, wind turbines, hotels and those all
important information offices. Our 'Special Concertina Map Fold'
makes Tour & Trail Maps easy to use, and more importantly easy
to fold back to their handy pocket size.'Super-Durable' means you
get a map printed on Polyart with 100% oxygenation inks by a UK
leading map printer. This gives you a map that feels like silk but
will stand up to the roughest treatment of outdoor adventuring and
yet fold up like new at the end of your adventure. Polyart is made
of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and is therefore 100%
recyclable in category 2 HDPE. For more information see the Polyart
website. Digital editions of Tour & Trail Maps for phone apps
and Garmin users are available on the dwgwalking website.
Arguing about the merits of players is the baseball fan's second
favorite pastime and every year the Hall of Fame elections spark
heated controversy. In a book that's sure to thrill--and
infuriate--countless fans, Bill James takes a hard look at the
Hall, probing its history, its politics and, most of all, its
decisions.
This book is the weapon for the best offense in the league. You
want to coach, but only know the football of your youth - the Power
I run it up the middle, three yards and a cloud of dust. Now you
finally have the tools to implement a simple, but highly effective,
and young player oriented, Hurry-Up-No-Huddle Spread Offense.
Combining elements of the Wing-T with a shotgun no huddle scheme,
this highly-effective system was developed specifically for the
volunteer coach of a youth football team (ages 8 to 14). The "coach
speak" has been removed and football concepts simplified in this
easy to read book. You'll soon be putting up points and the kids
will be having fun running plays that look similar to what
higher-level football teams execute. Be ready to be an inspiration!
This book provides a definitive and comprehensive contribution to
the expanding body of research related to sport/physical culture
and the COVID-19 global pandemic. By examining the generative
complexities that simultaneously link and shape sport/physical
culture and COVID, the book develops a collection of multi-faceted
readings. The anthology is framed by an ontological understanding
prefigured on relationality, liminality, and perpetual becoming.
The contributions theoretically, methodologically and
representationally explore COVID-sport assemblages as a dynamic and
diverse "ad hoc grouping"of interpenetrating affecting elements,
encompassing material and expressive forms, human and non-human,
animate and inanimate matter. The book will be of interest to
advanced undergraduate and students and scholars of kinesiology,
sociology of sport, critical studies of the body, physical
education, sport and social issues, public health, physical
cultural studies, sociology, foreign policy studies, and
international studies.
The Invisible Bicycle brings together different insights into the
social, cultural and economic history of the bicycle and cycling in
historical eras of ubiquitous bicycle use that have remained
relatively invisible in bicycle history. It revisits the typical
timeline of cycling's decline in the 1950s and 1960s and the
renaissance beginning in the 1970s by bringing forth the large
national and local variations, varying uses and images of the
bicycle, and different bicycle cultures as well as their historical
background and motivations. To understand the role, possibilities
and challenges of the bicycle today, it is necessary to know the
history that has formed them. Therefore The Invisible Bicycle is
recommended also to present-day practitioners and planners of
bicycle mobility. Contributors are: Peter Cox, Martin Emanuel,
Tiina Mannistoe-Funk, Timo Myllyntaus, Nicholas Oddy, Harry
Oosterhuis, William Steele, Manuel Stoffers, Sue-Yen Tjong Tjin
Tai, Frank Veraart.
