ROAD.CC 'This is a truly beautiful book' CHRIS SIDWELLS, author of
Wild Cycling and Really Wild Cycling 'Impeccable design and
compulsive content . . . phenomenal . . . glorious photography,
often colourfully spread across two wide-format pages, each
numbered and graded ride is accompanied by a map, a profile that
usually resembles the teeth of a tyrannosaurus, a summary of the
key climbs, the total distance covered and the total vertical
distance achieved on completion' thewashingmachinepost In this
inspirational book, filled with amazing photographs, Simon has
showcased Britain's beautiful landscape in the same way that
Michael Blann and others have done for the mountains of continental
Europe. The aim is always to make people want to get out and ride
Britain's roads, to entice people to put themselves in the pictures
on every page and ride through the stunning scenery. The book is a
seamless blend of beautiful photographs and information on the
rides, including gradient diagrams and maps. This is Simon Warren
taking his well-deserved reputation as the King of Climbs and
displaying it in a bold new format, from pocket guide to
cinemascope. The book contains 40 inspirational rides split across
eight chapters covering the whole of mainland Britain. From
Dartmoor through Wales, the Peak District and the Pennines all the
way via the Lakes to the Highlands of Scotland. From Surrey and
Kent to Lincolnshire and Northumberland, if there are hills Simon
has found them and plotted a route to share his knowledge. Each
ride includes a profile of the route, a detailed map and breakdown
of the key climbs, also a description of what to expect along the
way, all illustrated by inspirational photography. The eight
chapters cover the South-west, the South-east, the Midlands,
Yorkshire, the North-east, Scotland, the North-west and Wales, so,
no matter where you live, there will be something close to your
doorstep. There is even a route in Norfolk!
