Cranks from Cooperstown: 50 Bike Rides in Upstate New York is a tour guide to the back roads and 70 points of interest in the Cooperstown area of upstate New York, home of the National Baseball Hall of Fame. The tours, appropriate for exploration by bicycle, motorcycle or car, are uniquely presented on 50 perforated tear-out "cue sheets." Each cue sheet page shows directions for a tour on one side and a map of the tour on the other. Cranks is also a complete and detailed bicycling instruction manual designed to get the novice on the road and to expand the biking knowledge of the experienced cyclist. Cranks is paperback, 208 pages, 8 1/2" x 11", with numerous photographs, diagrams, illustrations and maps.
About the Author: Dennis Savoie has lived and practiced medicine in Cooperstown, N.Y. since 1971. He is an avid recreational and touring cyclist who has found bicycling instruction manuals and tour guides lacking. So he has written his own detailed version of how-to bike, and he has invented an improved tear-out cue sheet that lets you leave the bulky tour book at home. After four years of effort, thousands of miles biked, and countless rewrites, he is proud to present Cranks from Cooperstown. At 52, Dennis, married with three sons, is a member of the League of American Bicyclists, the New York Bicycling Coalition, and the Adventure Cycling Association. Since 1983 he's biked 66,129 accident-free miles. He invites you to do the same.
