Description: WILD WEST WALES


on Two Wheels

If you're looking for the best cycling opportunities in West Wales, this book has all the answers. It's the first book of mountain bike routes for this wonderful cycling area and it directs you to all of the most interesting, scenic and enjoyable routes. Nearly all the cycling is off-road, because your safety is of top priority.

There are 20 rides - most are within the scope of the occasional cyclist, but more experienced mountain bikers will find plenty of rides to challenge them and many hills that are worth conquering. The view from the top of the Preseli Mountains is even more rewarding when you've got there on two wheels and sheer determination! See if you can make it up the hills which had us beaten!

The book is full of useful information about equipment, preparation and access to the rides. As well as practical advice and clear instructions, we share our experiences and enjoyment of the routes in our How was it for us? sections - perfect reading for the day ahead - at least you will know what to expect!

We are keen cyclists, walkers and environmentalists with an enthusiastic interest in local history and wildlife. We have lived in Pembrokeshire for over 30 years and are partners in a local boat cover making company.
