Publisher's Synopsis
My first guidebook and old friend, BICYCLE YOUR FRANCE: EXPLORING BURGUNDY is updated as BURGUNDY EXPLORATIONS Revisited. All eleven of the original route maps have been redrawn. Four new routes are included. All are somewhat longer and more of a challenge. Elevation data was acquired every 200 meters on each route and new profiles drafted. Each redrafted route includes discussions of a few villages, historical personalities and points of interest along the way. Included are 378 photographs, 15 two-page maps and 2 town maps. Each route includes discussions of a few villages, historical personalities and points of interest along the way. Included with each route is the latest method for listing Waypoints. Now each Waypoint locates longitude and latitude in degrees, minutes and seconds (to the hundredth), and in digital format. Now cyclists with GPS-enabled smartphones may check each of the turn instructions while their companions either wait around or get on with the ride. As with all other BICYCLE YOUR FRANCE guidebooks, this guide also offers a companion publication, QUEUE SHEETS, with just the Waypoint listings (including GPS), route maps and elevation profile. In addition to the print format, this guidebook is available for the Kindle devices. With each new guidebook, I become more convinced that the best way to engage totally with a region is to bicycle it. Get out there you cycling pilgrims.
