Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
The Rocky Mountains are a statement in diversity and resplendent natural beauty. Combine that with a little Old West, a few ghost towns, some of the world's grandest national parks, and the ultimate in grey tarred twisties, and you have the perfect formula for great adventure travel for any motorcycling enthusiast. Written by a seasoned motorcyclist and journalist, this new book details approximately 20 breathtaking trips with easy-to-follow directions, colored topographical maps, photographs, and special tips and information on places to eat, sleep, shop, and pitch a tent. From the Grand Canyon to the great Yellowstone National Park and on into the Canadian Rockies, this is the definitive guide to one of motorcycling's most popular travel destinations.




Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Very informative
This book is very informative. It has been a tremendous help in planning my motorcycle trips. Love the pictures.



Rated by buyers 2 out of 5 stars - Skip this if you already live in the Rockies
First let me say the quality of this is very first rate, publishing and writing. However, for someone who lives in Denver and the heart of the Rockies I was very disappointed.

Buy this book if 1.) You do NOT live in or near the Rockies. 2.) You are NOT "savvy" reading recreational atlas maps, AAA Guides, or using the Internet or Google Earth.

I guess I simply had higher expectations for rides in "my backyard". There are only 6 trips in Colorado. Three are based out of Georgetown and three out of Durango. If you live near these areas I guarantee you probably have already ridden these rides. Looking at other areas I have ridden, (Grand Canyon, S. Utah, etc.), most of the rides are common sense easily inferred my looking at a map or if you subscribe to a magazine like "Road Runner" you probably already have the info.

Again, high quality, but "locals" beware. The "Grand Loop" section is great if you a month+ vacation to tour ALL of the Rockies.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - MC Journeys Rocky Mountains
We took this book with us on a 3 week tour of the rockies. Visited some of the recommended motels and restaurants. Info was great and very accurate. Made the trip much better and easier to plan day to day.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Great read.
Great pictures. Great descriptions. Makes you want to be there. Recommend it.
