 Bike Scotland Trails Guide May 31, 2007
Bought on a recent bike trip to scotland - had just right level of information for us and we ended up using it alot.

Very well laid-out, nice little book with many trails mentioned. Unfortunately, they seem to be only mentioned. In it is a ride I do at least once a month, in which there are several paths to achieve the summit of Dumyat (a hill above Stirling). However, I still don't know, even with the help of 1:25000 maps, which paths they are using. More in-depth descriptions would be welcome. Most of the time, with manmade trails/centres, this does not matter as information is at the destination.
Only buy if you need a starting point, even with a map, I think you will get lost on several of these rides!!! This book has loads of potential too, which is a shame - nicely set out, great pictures and some excellent trails mentioned.
Essential kit! October 3, 2006

I think this is a fantastic wee book with obvious appeal to the ever growing spectrum of people who like to mountain bike. As a trails rider I particularly appreciate the informative and varied information on marked trails, including the less well known ones. But the fact that this book also provides first hand knowledge about some real gems of routes which are off the beaten track, and also has something to appeal to the "family" or novice riders among us means it is sure to have widespread appeal.
Having ridden some of the routes already I reckon the level of detail provided is just right for a pocket guide book. The pictures, and the author's enthusiasm for the trails, make you want get out there and ride them all. I'm looking forward to ticking them all off my "to do" list.

I picked up a copy of this book in August and have since tried four of the routes. As a fairly recent convert to mountain biking, the book has been a god-send for me, and I know I will continue to use it for years to come. A well written and accessible guide, highly recommended.

Please note that Uncle Pedro, the poster of the only negative review of this book, is a member of Stirling Bike Club - as is the author of another Scottish trails guide which sells a lot less copies. And his name isn't Pedro, its Peter.
