About this title

Synopsis

There's no better way to see the real Maine than by bike...and no better way to bike it than with this third edition of Howard Stone's 25 Bicycle Tours in Maine--updated, expanded, and featuring all-new maps. Ranging from half-day jaunts to multiday adventures, these tours take you down nearly 2000 miles of Maine's back roads--through weathered lobster ports, past blueberry barrens and gracious Colonial homes, around remote islands and lakes, up (and down!) scenic hills. Stone concentrates on "the roads less traveled...the route to take if you truly want to learn what Maine is all about." (Bates College Alumni Newsletter). Included with each tour is total mileage; a detailed map; complete mile-by-mile directions; information on nearby bicycle shops, accommodations, and eateries; and the author's notes on the country you're biking through. Many tours include bonuses: side trips, detours, and alternate routes to tailor the ride to your taste.
