Cycling the Great Divide: From Canada to Mexico on North America's Premier Long-Distance Mountain Bike Route, 2nd Edition

Good book on the GDMBR. This book along with the GDMBR should be invaluable for anyone wanting to do this divide bike route. Also interesting info in the book for anyone interested of places and things along the route.

Just started reading this book for a planned summer ride along the northern part of the route. We went to a slide show by 2 riders and they said that using this book and with the detailed maps that you should also have, made the ride very straight forward. Many of the routes sign posted have been destroyed by gun owners and the distance to way points mentioned in the book were accurate. He also gives many pointers on equipment and supplies for beginners who are thinking of doing the route.

This book gives a good overview of what riding the great divide would be like. I enjoyed the historical information and the side trip options that were identified. I would recommend this book to someone anticipating doing this ride.

I can't compare this edition to the older one, as I don't have that one. However, this edition is great (no pun intended)! I am very much looking forward to doing this route. The itinerary in the book seems very reasonable. The info is invaluable and quite complete. I would highly recommend this book for anyone interested in doing the Great Divide. In fact, even if you are not interested, and you read this, you will want to do it!

This is a very informative account of the directions, encounters, and general interesting information about the Great Divide route. We are parents of a bicycler that is traversing this trail at the present. We have been able to follow the route using the maps, get an idea of what he will be seeing, and learning interesting information. We highly recommend it from a parent's perspective.

Awesome book of an AWESOME mountain bike tour I'm planning my thur-ride & this book is great, it has a plan in it you can go by but it also lists other campgrounds, towns ect incase you do not want to ride as far or if you would like to gfo more mpd and finish sooner. Yes I highly recommend this book

The book delivered on time and as described. I would purchase again from this seller.

Cool could be better in colors

Good guide but a little out of date because the route had changed, though this was clearly disclosed ahead of purchase. Very satisfied.

Um die Etappen zu planen, ist das Buch OK, aber nur der Kanada Teil ist neu.Der Rest ist so alt wie die erste Ausgabe. Man sollte sich unbedingt die Karten 2018kaufen, da dort die Wasserstellen aktueller eingetragen sind und die Infos aktueller sind.Bin 2018 die Tour gefahren.

A brilliant and probably essential guide if you're planning to ride the divide. Lots of detail on the route and any towns, obstacles, etc you'll encounter. It probably goes without saying that you'll need to buy the maps as well. If you're just after a general book about the divide this wouldn't be the one to choose as unless you're actually planning to ride it you might find it a bit dry. That's not a criticism of the book. In the same vein you wouldn't buy a haynes manual to read about a car you were interested in.

It's a great detailed book. That helps you get preapred.

A very inspiring account of perhaps cycling's greatest adventure. For the non Americans among us its just a pity it's not closer to home but the location is what makes the Great Divide so appealing. The mapping detail is excellent along with some great historical accounts. Iconic places like Fleecer Ridge, Flathead Valley, Warm River and Pie Town to name but a few, will for now have to remain in this cyclists imagination.
