Nga Haerenga - the New Zealand Cycle Trails is full of useful information on the different trails - how to get there, what you will see, level of difficulty, things to take, places to eat and places to stay.
There is fascinating background information on each area - its history and the local flora and fauna - as well as on the ride itself.
There is also a highly practical section full of advice on choosing the right bike, gear to take, cell phone coverage in the different areas, weather and the best times of year for each trail, environmental care and useful websites.
Written by New Zealand's top cycling writer, the book is aimed at family groups and first-time cyclists as well as more experienced groups. It's accompanied by colour photos, elevation profiles and maps of each trail.

Poll: Would you ever buy a total doer upper?
Housing stock is starting to move on the Coromandel Peninsula, including a dilapidated place one block back from Whitianga's Buffalo Beach that sold to a Hamilton bargain hunter for $500,000.
Real estate companies are starting to see more deals go, however, prices have stabilised with high supply levels still outstripping demand.
Would you ever buy a total doer upper? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
