Around Glasgow is one of 20 titles in the new Philip's Cycle Tours
series. The series is directly derived from the highly successful
Ordnance Survey Cycle Tours series, but has been updated and
improved, with a new focus on the needs of cyclists and the cycling
market in the 21st century.Each book in the series contains 20
routes, both on-road and off-road, taking you along low-traffic or
traffic free roads, tracks and paths. The route takes you through
some of the most beautiful countryside and prettiest villages in
Britain, and past some of the finest and most interesting houses,
churches, castles, gardens and monuments in the land.Around Glasgow
takes cyclists through the great natural beauty of the western half
of southern Scotland around Glasgow, with rides in the area from
the Trossachs to the north to Stranraer in the south. The region
provides fantastic hill riding, together with the pleasures of
river, lochs, forest and coastline.A unique feature of Philip's
Cycle Tours is the superb Ordnance Survey 1:50,000 mapping showing
the routes of the rides. This mapping not only gives the detail and
clarity you need to follow the route with ease and safety, but
allows you to plan short-cuts and detours, to look out for new
places of interest, and to become truly involved in the lansdcape
you are cycling through. The mapping now shows National Cycle
Network routes and National Long-Distance Footpaths.Clear
directions are given alongside the mapping, and cross-profile
diagrams make planning the pacing of each ride an easy task, even
for the beginner. Extra information includes an introduction to the
area of the route, nearest railway stations, places of interest
with descriptions, guides to refreshment stops, and clear
indications of distance, grade and terrain.The books are
beautifully and practically designed, with colour photographs
throughout the ultra-clear layout.Main map scale: 1:50,000
