Merseyside & Manchester Cycle Map 25: Including the Pennine Cycleway, the Trans Pennine Trail and 4 Individual Day Rides Map – Folded Map, 1 May 2015

Disappointed as the product images looked to be of the quality of an OS map, but this is a cheap reproduction.

Ideal for planning cycle trips ,reducing traffic issues

Not worth the money

I have just finished selotaping this map back together - not good as it was my first use of the map. As a pocket map I'd put it in my pocket on my cycling top. Bad idea, sweat seeped through onto the map and making it wet and thus tearing on one of the folds. This in itself was bad but combined with the fact that the route of the no.5 National Route was incorrectly marked and the actual route on the road not marked at all has given me little confedence in these maps.I also feel that just marking a route as traffic free is just not good enough. I did a particular route and the traffic free sections varied from tarmac cycleways to going across fields. Fortunately having a hybrid bike I could cycle all the route but if you had a road bike then pushing it would probably been the only answer.As well as a cyclist I am also a keen hillwalker/mountaineer so am used to using either OS or Harveys maps in the UK. These are far better than this map (although more expensive it must be said). I doubt that I will buy another one unless it was to keep at home and plan a route then use an OS map.
