Synopsis

For the avid cyclist or for the family planning a weekend activity, these carefully selected, well-researched routes are appropriate for everyone.

From the Back Cover

Open up a can of Chicagoland bike rides. Let 'em spill out on the table where you make your most crucial decisions. Get a map out. Okay, where's it gonna be? The first rails-to-trail conversion in the country? Mountain biking in Wisconsin? How about the Chicago Botanical Gardens? Maybe a city ride into the Historic Prairie District? Or down into the wonders of Hyde Park? Even better, how about a trek clear across the state for a ride along the Mississippi River? All it takes is a plan and a push. Sometimes it's hard to get away. It's difficult to leave all that's going on at work and home. That's why this book is important: it makes getting to the outdoors as easy and enjoyable as possible, getting you out the door with a plan. Each ride includes precise written directions, excellent route maps, level of difficulty, mileage, safety tips, availability of food and facilities, and vivid descriptions of points of interest. No matter what your experience level, you'll be sure to find the perfect ride in this book!
