The Scale
The maps of the rides use 9.9 miles to one inch mapping
which has been specially lightened to make it easier
to read on a motorbike and through a tank bag. On average,
in a straight line there are 70 miles to a page, North
to South, and 45 miles East to West, so you won’t
have to keep stopping to turnover the page! The Outer
Hebrides, Orkney and Shetland Islands and Northern Ireland
use a scale of 15.8 miles to the inch.
Urban approach maps use 1.3 miles to the inch.
Designed to fit in your tank bag or map holder
The atlas is A5 Spiral Bound to fit in your tank bag
or map holder or indside pocket. This is a 1st Oxford
Tank Bag one of the smallest map holders we found.
It’s designed to withstand the wear and tear
of motorcycling use.
The Best Rides Motorcycle Atlas has been manufactured
from special paper which is tear proof under normal
biking wear and tear, and water proof you can get it
wet and the ink doesn’t run.

EuroRAP Survey
EuroRAP is The European Road Assessment Programme,
a scientific study undertaken in 2005 looking at road
safety throughout Europe. EuroRAP looks at road accidents
and identifies which roads have the most accidents,
who was involved and what caused them.
For your safety and awareness we have highlighted
with yellow striping the rides which are rated High
or Medium risk for Motorcyclists. We want you to use
our Atlas for many years so please remember to take
care and ride safely. For more information visit www.eurorap.org
Where are the rides from?
We’ve personally done over 150 of the rides
in The Best Rides Atlas from the amazing A836 in Scotland
to the steep and twisty B3276 in Cornwall, and from
the sweeping A487 in Wales to the fast switchback B6047
in Leicestershire. The proof is at our website www.thebestrides.co.uk
where we have over 500 rides and in excess of 100 pictures
of rides taken by us. The rides have been collated from
hours of research and interviews on the road, at café,
at the NEC and the Alexandra Palace. We have also recently
acquired www.motorcycleroadsonline.com
which added to the database.
The rides are recommended by riders who have ridden
them and we can honestly say we have yet to find a duff
one! If your best ride is in the Atlas then add a review
of it at www.thebestrides.co.uk.
If it’s not in the Atlas then add it with a commentary.
