Consistent difficulty rating & useful additional information prevent the user from critical situations on the trails. The best singletrails in the best mountain bike spots throughout Europe
- this is the convincing formula of the brand new Supertrail Maps. For the first time ever, these unique topographic maps make the knowledge of locals available to others. All the trails on a map have been biked & rated in five difficulty levels for up- & downhill separately by specially trained authors. This consistent rating facilitates tour planning & spares a user from getting into sketchy situations on the trails. In addition to the difficulty rating, extraordinary nice trails are marked with a «highlight»-pictogram. The maps in a scale of 1:50 000 show all information required for tour planning & orienting oneself on the trails, such as: difficulty, highlight-trails, mountain railways with mountain bike transport, mountain bike shuttles, dangerous falls, restaurants, bike shops, emergency numbers & touristic infopoints. Thanks to the especially chosen map section, one map covers the whole area. The Supertrail Maps are printed on tear- & waterproof foil which makes them very sturdy. On the back of any map, additional information about the area & the use of a Supertrail Map are presented in two languages. Folded

Dimensions of 10x 15cm allow the map to fit into any pocket without squeezing.

Thomas Chapple's Base Building for Cyclists shows how a stronger base makes a stronger, faster, cyclist. A cyclist needs to have a strong foundation & a high fitness ceiling before the season even starts. Fundamentals like strength training & skill development take a backseat once race preparation begins in earnest. This is just one of the reasons why Thomas Chapple argues that the success of the upcoming season depends on the extent to which you can build your foundation of aerobic fitness, or your base, for the road ahead. Whatever your goals as a cyclist, early season training should focus on broadening the aerobic base & building cycling-specific strength & skills. In effect, this builds a bigger, more efficient engine to help you reach higher intensities later in the season. Chapple's guide for cyclists extends beyond the vital pre-season months, establishing the strong foundation that leads to enhanced overall fitness & speed. ...
