Editorial Reviews

Review

Simple, inexpensive, small enough to fit into a fanny pack, the books in this series are best thought of as tools that efficiently serve their function. The one hundred ninety-two pages of Short Bike Rides: Hawaii give you forty rides covering Hawaii's six major islands. Each ride includes precise directions, a simple map, the level of difficulty, mileage, availability of food and facilities, and safety tips elementary enough for even the softest heads ("You mean I need sunscreen in the tropics?")Independent Publisher didn't agree with my plan to test this book on location (on their dime) so I can't vouch for the accuracy of the information. It seems pretty authentic, though. Mr. Walter's writing is more than adequate. He knows his terrain and has a feeling for its beauty as well as a pleasing simplicity of expression. The many black-and-white photographs are grainy and often poorly composed-rest easy Ansel Adams-but their irregularities detract little from the value of this work. -- From Independent Publisher

From the Back Cover

Explore paradise on two wheels with this carefully researched guide to 40 bike rides on Oahu, Maui, Molokai, Lanai, and the 'Big Island.' Destinations include an adventure down to Ship-wreck Beach and Manele Bay on tranquil Lanai, an amble up Oahu's Lanikai bike path 'into the clouds', and an excursion to Pearl Harbor that includes a visit to the Arizona memorial. Clear mile-by-mile directions and detailed route maps guide riders along every bend in the road.

4.0 out of 5 stars Easy and informative read, October 27, 2005
This review is from: Short Bike Rides(tm) Hawaii (Paperback)
If you are planning a trip to Hawaii with your bike this is the best guide available. Has rides of all difficulty levels and good descriptions of local settings and lore without overloading you with a lot of fluff.

I just want to know when the author's guide to illegal watershed hikes of Oahu will be published.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice book, short bike rides., June 11, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Short Bike Rides(tm) Hawaii (Paperback)
Nice bike rides in this book. Hawaii is kind of tough to get lost and also hard to find low traffic roads to ride on. You can pretty much see them on the map. It was helpful though.
