Summary

Harry Henniker's biking guides have been widely praised, both in the cycling press and elsewhere. This latest mountain biking book features routes all over Scotlandnot boring routes with only spruce trees to look at, but routes full of variety, and interesting for cyclists of all abilities. Many of the routes are completely new, and the majority have never been published in book form by anyone else. The text and easy-to-follow maps are accompanied by stunning color photographs. In addition to writing mountain-biking and cycling guides, Harry also runs a special bus service for cyclists based in Edinburgh.
