Ever wondered what treats of off-road riding might lurk in those
big blank bits on the map between Llandegla, Penmachno, The Marin
Trail and Coed y Brenin? Well, take a trip back to the future with
Pete Bursnall's fully updated version of North Wales' first proper
mountain bike guidebook. It contains a carefully selected choice of
27 mountain bike routes, all of which cover real mountains, trails
and bridleways beyond the bounds of the formal trail centres. The
routes range in suitability from those new to the sport, through
medium distance & difficulty and on to some real challenging
expeditions to test your fitness, skills, navigation and even sense
of humour - such as the epic 78km circuit of the Carneddau
mountains...not to be undertaken lightly. This is pretty much where
it all began, remembered fondly by those of us who explored the
un-ridden on the first generation of fully rigid bikes in a time
before helmets, decent brakes and smart phones. This edition was
almost complete when Pete succumbed to cancer, which he fought
furiously to the end. Matt Strickland took over the reigns, as he
had been closely involved with the book, indeed featuring on the
front cover. The 27 routes are in 7 areas - specifically Carneddau,
Clwydian, Berwyn, Mignant & Moelwyn, Moel Siabod, Rhynnogau and
Snowdon. The book has Ordnance Survey mapping for each route, and a
gradient diagram. Many colour photographs are included.
