Synopsis:

Tucked out of the way along the scenic back roads of Ohio are about 100 historic covered bridges. Many of these quiet back roads are also ideal for cycling. What better way to visit these vintage structures than on two wheels? RIDE GUIDE: Covered Bridges of Ohio provides all the information you need to visit 37 of Ohio's remaining covered bridges. There are maps and cue sheets for 11 rides throughout the state, with directions to the starting point, notes about traffic and road conditions, and plenty of information on the bridges themselves. There are loops for cyclists of all skill levels, from relatively flat, 24-mile tours to rides of up to 60 miles. And an illustrated glossary will make you an expert on covered bridge design in no time!

About the Author: Steve Butterman, the primary researcher and writer of this book and veteran of thirty years of bike-touring, is also the author of the bike-touring classic, "Bicycle Touring: How to Prepare for Long Rides."  He has also authored two children's books, "Rootbeer Beard" and "The Honeybee Rebel," and two humorous story collections: "Tales as Tall as a Sunflower" (gardening-related) and "That's so Funny, My Hair Fell Out!" (about his successful battle with cancer).
