Harry Henniker's biking guides have been widely praised, both in the cycling press and elsewhere. This latest mountain biking book has been well worth waiting for. It features routes all over Scotland: not boring routes with only spruce trees to look at, but routes full of variety, interesting for cyclists of all abilities and usually with beautiful scenery. 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 colour photographs. In addition to writing mountain-biking and cycling guides, Harry also runs a special bus service for cyclists based in Edinburgh. His friends and BikeBus passengers have had a great time checking out many of the routes featured here; we hope you do too!

Much more than just a set of directions, the author's own experience on each cycling route in this book is described in an entertaining narrative, and detailed route information is featured to allow readers to follow the routes for themselves. Through following any of these routes, cyclists will encounter events and places that have played an important but lesser-known role in the bigger Scottish picture. The routes take in everything one would expect from a holiday in Scotland but reveal unexpected little-known gems in addition. Every aspect of travelling with a bike is covered, and each route is carefully constructed to make the cyclist feel safe and remove the need for expensive and inconvenient car hire. It features nine of the best routes that cyclists of any level will find possible and enjoyable.
