For rides to be included in enCYCLEpedia, the scenery had to be beautiful, the trails mostly flat, and the traffic kept at bay. Routes were reverse engineered, starting with the most scenic places and evaluating how best to see them by bike.  The rides exude the absolute joy of cycling that can be achieved if you're on the perfect trail.  Distances are manageable, providing exercise without incapacitation.  Orange County Register (May 22, 2015)There are guidebooks that are useful, and there are guidebooks that are entertaining to read--this new title is a unique combination of both. enCYCLEpedia is the best new cycling guidebook for Southern California.  - Women's Adventure Magazine (April 2014)For the adventurer, Richard Fox takes us on a journey through Southern California's -- and the Coachella Valley's -- most leisurely and scenic bike rides.  Add enCYCLEpedia to your must read list.   Palm Springs Life magazine (July 2014)

Good references for finding trails. Planned vacation around guide. Trails were easy to find. Lived up to expectations. Maps were helpful.

Very detailed and helpful.I am glad there is a RECENT book on trails like this one.

And, in the "One can only just wonder" department: What if the famous Hollywood movie/TV star/actor Alec Baldwin spent more of his time reading and following the wonderfully illustrated and lovingly mapped cycling adventures and advice in the beautiful new book "enENCYCLEpedia Southern California, The Best Easy Scenic Bike Rides" by Richard Fox, (Westcliffe Publishers, Boulder CO 2014) maybe his troubles with cycling in NYC may well never have happened.Who knows if Alec Baldwin's bad bicycle karma could have ever been entirely avoided, but In this new book, (and note the title's clever spelling---"enENCYCLEpedia") there are so many choices and places described, with an invitation to pedal in some of the most charming, breathtaking relaxing and scenic locales in Southern California, that it would, by any comparison, represent nothing less than a true escape of pure joy. It certainly would be just that kind of change of place and pace---latitude and attitude, where even just reading the wonderful writing in this book, could alone bring if not karmic bliss, at least an instant good mood to anyone. Yes, it's tempting to send him a copy of the book.Of course, Alec can afford to buy a copy of the book himself, (and maybe a few copies for a couple for his friends and possible fellow riders)...and if he does, he will quickly find himself enjoying a pleasant ride while marveling at the absolute thoroughness and lively detail that author Richard Fox has pored into this amusing and informative book.Not only are there great photos and maps detailing recommendations for various comfortable rides in the iconic So Cal area, but ever the renaissance man, author Fox annotates these amazing rides not only with important highlights to let riders/readers appreciate the wider view from the road sort of speak, he even adds a recommended music playlist (`safe listening style' (one ear-bud free)), list of songs to enhance and accompany the journey inspired by associations of the particular place. Note that the maps and descriptions will never get out of date as the author plans to constantly update all of the information in downloadable format on a website available to owners of the book.But needless to say: Better not pedal and read at the same time (so my advice: decide to read and be inspired first; then pedal to your heart's content checking out and planning your travels both as you go, or as you reminisce at home afterwards). Return to the book and you'll want to get back on the bike, on the road again, eager to see, learn and experience more. Also in this book, you'll see plenty of places to pause on your bike trip, to refresh, take a break, ponder, reflect and take it all in.For the best places accessible by an easy bike ride to see elephant seals, whales, wildlife, wildflowers, lots of nature, amazing architecture, local points of interest, (even with suggestions for local eats), amazing facts and history abound, this book packs it all in with full color custom and artistically-rendered maps suggestive of the various highlighted places, and great photos covering the area in Southern California from San Luis Obispo County and south, across to Bakersfield and the desert region of the state. This is the definitive compendium of the most enjoyable easy-going and scenic bike rides, mostly away from vehicle traffic, encompassing most of this region's stunning ecosystems, parks and varied points of interest you'll ever find presented in one convenient place right at your fingertips.But, because this is definitely not a typical cycling guidebook, or a skills and competition bike manual, and unlike a dry list of must-do-must see tour place pamphlets, this book reads more like a novel or a journal of discovery of sorts, and strangely, the information, and the tips are more of a subtle and welcome perk. The exercise and the stress-removal riding that comes with all of this is also pretty much a pleasant afterthought. Nobody with a bicycle in Southern California, or anyone who ever has had an interest in the area, the lifestyle, or has plans to visit someday, should miss the opportunity to check out this absolutely entertaining and very essential book. At 373-packed illustrated pages, it's the real deal and best deal on two wheels.I personally highly recommend this book.

Lots of great information in this book, but the maps leave a lot to be desired in my opinion.

good information book, thank you

I read all the great reviews, and decided to buy this. I was, however, unable to read it. The author is concerned with making people understand how his book is structured - I had no problem with that. But now I am completely sure that there is such a thing as men's and women's writing style - I simply could not read this. I decided to give it to my boyfriend (luckily we bike together, so I will still benefit from the author's knowledge), and he is completely comfortable with this writing style, and loves the book :-)

Plenty of rides, pretty good descriptions, but the maps are very funky and unhelpful.

What a great gift this was! It contains exactly the kinds of rides I like to do and covers the entire Southern California region which is my stomping ground. So far I've used it in the Palm Springs, Orange County and San Diego (my favorite) areas and the coverage was fantastic, with many great rides I was not aware of, and I've lived & cycled in SoCal since the 80's. I'm really looking forward to making it up to the Central Coast to do those rides, they sound awesome. The book even makes Bakersfield and Riverside seem inviting, places one may usually skip over for scenic cycling.It's definitely the most unique bike guide I've seen, with its artsy color maps (Huntington Beach/Surf City in the shape of a surfboard, etc), but they also are very detailed and helpful, showing paved vs dirt paths vs bikeable sidewalks vs bike routes on roadways; places to eat & places of interest. The text tells it like it is, expressing the pure joy of what to expect, as well as the "knocks and hazards" of each ride, since nothing is perfect. I also appreciate how the rides stay out of the high-crime areas, and warn about some "iffy" areas in the included rides.I've found that it's a book you actually need to READ and get to know to get the most out of it, since there is so much info packed into its pages. At first I didn't like that the ride numbers weren't numerical (1,2,3 etc) but rather alpha numeric based on location (SD1, SD2 etc) making it hard to just flip from one ride to another referenced ride (for those of us too lazy to go to the Table of Contents).but then I found the handy quick-reference Ride# - Page# chart in the back and that made flipping between rides a cinch. I also appreciate the very detailed index. I already loved cycling around SoCal but this book makes it even better for an avid but more casual cyclist like me that doesn't like to ride in traffic and loves great scenery.
