East Bay Bike Trails: 31 Road and Mountain Bicycle Rides through Alameda and Contra Costa Counties (Bay Area Bike Trails Series)

Good suggested routes

Interesting rides in this book, but the reality is that the cover picture and book title are highly misleading. This is definitively not a bike "trail" book. Most all of the described rides are on busy and often high-speed highways full of automobiles. In fact, in areas that I'm intimately familiar with, true bike paths are bypassed. I doubt the author even knows about them. For example, Livermore California has miles of bike paths through several parks and vineyards - beautiful country, easily 10 miles of nothing but bike path. They're barely mentioned. This should have been an auto book.

This was a gift

Given that I live in the east bay it is good to have this book to plan out my bike rides

excellent product
