Roads to Ride, South: A Bicyclist's Topographic Guide To San

It is a shame that this book and its companion book on Contra Costa, Alameda and Marin counties is out of print. As old as it is, and as many new roads as there are, it is amazingly accurate. The mileage figures and grade percentages are invaluable. I use it all the time.

A Valuable Reference for Cyclists of all levels

This book is my bible when it comes to planning cycle trips in the Santa Cruz, San Mateo area. It is an absolute necessity to plan rides of varying difficulty. It is unfortunate that it is out of print .. if you find a copy grab it quick. It is a treasure of valuable topographic and anecdotal information on all the bike routes worth riding.

Roads to Ride South -- EXCELLENT

This book is an incredible resource for cyclists. It is unfortunate that it hasn't been given more recent updates, or that the publisher doesn't adequately support it. The degree of topographical detail on the root profiles is unsurpassed on any books I've seen in the United Stages -- perhaps the Atlas les Cols des Alpes comes close. It fails to get a 10 because: 1. it is becoming obsolete 2. there may be some minor errors in the data
