Epic Bike Rides Of The World (Lonely Planet)
Sold Out
Lonely Planet: The world's leading travel guide publisher
Discover 200 of the best places to ride a bike in this beautifully illustrated book. From family-friendly, sightseeing urban rides to epic adventures off the beaten track. Destinations range from France and Italy, for the world's great bike races, to the wilds of Mongolia and Patagonia. These journeys will inspire - whether you are an experienced cyclist or just getting started.
The book is organised by continent. In the Americas we join a family bikepacking trip in Ecuador; we pedal the Natchez Trace Parkway and stop at legendary music spots; we ride the Pacific Coast Highway in Oregon and California; go mountain biking in Moab and Canada; and explore the cities of Buenos Aires and New York by bicycle.
European rides include easy-going trips around Lake Constance, along the Danube and the Loire, and coast-to-coast routes; routes in Tuscany, Spain and Corsica; and professional journeys up Mt Ventoux and around the Tour of Flanders.
In Asia, we venture through Vietnam's valleys; complete the Mae Hong Son circuit in northern Thailand; cross the Indian Himalayas; and pedal through Bhutan. And in Australia and New Zealand we take in Tasmania and Queensland by mountain bike; cycle into Victoria's high country and around Adelaide on road bikes; and try some of New Zealand's celebrated cycle trails.
Each ride is illustrated with stunning photography and a map. A toolkit of practical details - where to start and finish, how to get there, where to stay and more - helps riders plan their own trips. There are also suggestions for three more similar rides around the world for each story. Each piece shows how cycling is a fantastic way to get to know a place, a people and their culture.

History Heroes’ Explorers stretch back in time to Pytheas in the first century BCE and cover land, marine, submarine and lunar exploration from then until the present day. Neil Armstrong ‘rubs shoulders’ with Roald Amundsen and Ibn Battuta; Ranulph Fiennes with Leif Erikson and Yuri Gagarin; Amelia Earhart with Sir Francis Drake and Sylvia Earle; James Cameron with Pedro Cabral and Christopher Columbus to name a few.

You can use the images as clues and you can use the different levels of facts to make it as easy or as hard as you want to play the game. You can also play the game at different levels within the game so that all ages and stages can play together. The green facts are the easiest working down to the red facts, the most difficult. You can, of course, use the joker fact at the bottom, too, to overrule them all!

Hawker Hurricane Model Kit
£24.99
Model kits make great presents - not just because they look great when they're finished but because they offer the recipient hours of enjoyment, the ability to learn new skills and the sense of achievement when the model's complete.
Our current range of precision laser-cut balsa kits hark back to an era of aeromodelling where "stick and tissue" planes were all the rage and a Sunday morning at the park would see dads and sons flying (and crashing!) rubber powered aircraft in every direction.
Free flight models hark back to the very dawn of aeronautics, when enthusiasts searched for the perfect balance of airframe design and trim settings to achieve the longest possible flight.
The essence of free flight is that once you launch your model, you have no further control over it!
Hawker Hurricane (Calibration Squadron)
