A pocket guide to 50 great rides off the beaten track in Britain. An illustrated guide to 50 great, original rides off the beaten track in Britain, carefully chosen by Chris Sidwells.

Here is plenty of inspiration for anyone who loves to ride off road and get out into the wild and stunning scenery of the British mainland. Each route suggests further routes and the book as a whole introduces the wild cycling potential of a range of different locations. These natural routes to wild places link country lanes, green lanes, bridleways, towpaths, trails, and often ancient ways between places. The book is illustrated in color and each ride includes an annotated route map and ride profile, along with OS grid references. A fact file provides further indispensable details, including an indication of how hard each ride is and how wild. From Chalk Cliffs and curious sound mirrors in the southeast to Cape Wrath in the northwest, the purity, beauty, and essential wildness of these rides will ensure that over the years many of them will become classic, even legendary cycling challenges.
