For all the dedicated biking people you know
I bought this for my husband, who is a serious mountain bike rider. He looks into all the trails wherever we go, and makes sure to explore at least a few of them on our visits. So as we may have a bit more time on our hands as we move closer to retirement, I saw this book and thought we could make more trips around our beautiful country and check out more places. He was thrilled with the book, and looks forward to checking some of these places out! He liked it so much he had me get another one for his best friend, who is also an avid bike rider! He is enjoying it now, too. Do you know any avid bike riders? This is a great gift, or for yourself if you bike!

Makes me feel like going on a bike tour!
This is an exciting book to read, with great pics and trip ideas. Not sure if I’ll make it on any of them, but I’ve enjoyed reading it and have been sharing it with our warmshowers.org guests.

Awesome Gift
Great gift for my daughter, who has bicycled allover the world.She has now found new places to go. It did slow down our gift opening on Christmas Eve, since she wouldn’t put the book down and go on to open her next present. It was ok though, we all needed a break anyway. Great book.

Good gift for a cyclist
I bought this as a Christmas gift for my brother who has been into cycling and travel, so it seemed to be the perfect gift. I doubt he’s sat down to read it much, but I know he liked the idea of it and rather go out on his bike instead.

Great ideas for rides for those who cycle the world and those who merely dream about doing so
Inspiring with a group of ideas for rides I might not have thought of on my own. My wife and I travel all over the world, many by bicycle – 73 countries visited in total thus far. This book reminded me of some of our favorite past rides, confirmed some already on our existing list to try, suggested some we had not previously envisioned, and gave us reasons to rule out some others we might otherwise foolishly have tried.

E’ un bel libro pieno di itinerari descritti ed illustrati. Sfoglairlo è molto piacevole e può portare spunti interessanti. Non contiene informazioni complete per poter organizzare il viaggio, ma non credo che sia questo il suo scopo.
