Title: There are better books out there...
Review: I do not recommend this book.It's one of the older ones out there, you can tell by the looks of the photos, most are riding rigid fork mountain bikes.Being an older book, some of the trails listed are no longer opened to mountain biking. One for example is one of the Palos Verde rides. I drove 20 mins to make this ride only to find out that bikes have been prohibited here for several years.The map and trail diagrams are too small and crowded.Don and Sharon have a road bike that is much better than this mountain bike trail book.The book's writing style does have charm, but the maps are what's important and these maps could be better.The only redeeming value to this book is the altitude graph. This did save me on some rides.Don and Sharon... if you are reading this, please update your book with current trails and maybe some new photos. Your Los Angeles road bike trails book was good, but not this one.
