Biking Roads Guide - nick crisp - 26-10-13
Just started to stock this at work (Oxford Products). Spent all day yesterday looking through it (so did bugger all work :lol ). As well as having a lot of the most obvious ones (Snake Pass, Cat and Fiddle, Kyle of Loch Alsh road (A87?), A44 to Aber etc, it gives some good pointers as to where to ride if you're not on home ground, as well as recommending some biker meeting places, good hotels and restaurants etc. Even if you don't plan to ride the exact given routes, it gives some good ideas of where to head for. Recommended.

Reading the foreword, the author says about when discussing it with the editor of Ride magazine.
"Yeah but how are we going to know which are the best routes, which ones to leave out?"
"Well, you'll just have to go and ride them all"

Best biking roads of Europe, anyone? Me, me, me!!! :lol
