Backroad Bicycling in Wisconsin: 28 Scenic Tours through Lakes, Forests, and Glacier-Carved Countryside

By Scott D. Hall and Jane E. Hall

Book Overview

Wisconsin is one of cycling's best-kept secrets. From the tall pines and clear lakes of the north, through gently rolling central farmlands, to the hight bluffs and hidden valleys along the Mississippi River, the state is laced with well-maintained secondary roads. Since 1986, when they founded the Bike Wisconsin touring company, Jane and Scott Hall have led thousands of cyclists on tours around their home state. In this completely revised second edition the Halls have selected 28 of their favorite daylong cycling roads and rail-trails for all levels of recreational cyclists. The tours cover varied terrain and feature places of historic and cultural interest as well as areas of natural beauty. Each tour includes a detailed map; mile-by-mile directions; information on difficulty and terrain; trip highlights; and where to find repairs and rentals along the way.
