Best Bike Rides Seattle: Great Recreational Rides in the Metro Area (Best Bike Rides Series)

The is the Best book available for the Best rides in Seattle and communities within 30-minutes of the city. Well written, complete with useful maps and pictures and will invite riders to try something new next weekend.

A nice variety of rides with good detail, information, and pictures.

Great as a Kindle app that can be downloaded to your phone and used as a reference on the route. Has turn by turn directions and a nice collection of options, if you are on a "biking date".

Awesome! While, there's no shortage of course maps you can find on the Internet, this book provides a more curated set of rides with way more context than you would find on Strava or RideWithGPS.I highly recommend it to anyone exploring the city and surrounding area by bike, whether you're just looking to start or if you're looking for more inspiration.

This is a really great book with lots of cool ideas for exploring the city. The book breaks out rides based on the kind of bike that you have, which I really like a lot.The only downside is that the directions can be a little confusing if you're on a bike and trying to follow along. In particular, the ride like the one around Lake Union has a lot of turns because it's in an urban area and bounces back and forth between trails and roads. I ended up purchasing a GPS unit to put in the coordinates (provided by the book) to be able to follow along.

I have looked for a comprehensive book about bike trails in all of King County outside of Seattle and there is just not such a thing. This, at least, a recent book and covers some of the county trails as well as the metro area. Why someone can't write a book, like the hiking books, about local bicycling I have no idea. I have been looking for several years. So this is the best I could do and it is okay, but not exactly what I wanted.
