Biking Guide OFFICIAL BIKING GUIDE NINTH EDITION Dear Traveler, A little-known fact is that one of the best ways to travel in Wisconsin is by bicycle. From the picturesque rolling hills in the southwest to the premier mountain biking trails in the north, Wisconsin offers an outstanding ride for all levels of biking enthusiasts. Biking in Wisconsin is also a great way to explore our state’s rich history. As you take a ride on one of the 80 Wisconsin bike trails transformed from railroad tracks, enjoy the front row seat to amazing views on miles of quiet country roads. In my hometown of Plymouth, you can even follow the route of an old pioneer road from Sheboygan to Greenbush. The trail ends near the Wade House, an 1850’s stagecoach inn operated by the Wisconsin Historical Society. Remember too that anywhere you go on our miles of linear bike trails, mountain bike trails, and rural paved roads, plenty of friendly Wisconsinites and cheese options will be on the road to welcome you. Use this guide to plan your road biking adventure in Wisconsin and enjoy the journey! I’m excited that your travels have led you to our beautiful state.

Riding cliffside, cruising wide-open country roads, or dodging pines in a 1.5 million acre forest – this is Wisconsin biking. You haven’t biked some of the coun- Atry’s greatest trails until you’ve biked our state. We’re currently ranked as one of the top 10 biking states in the nation by the League of American Bicyclists. Wisconsin was the first state to convert abandoned railways to multiuse paths. One of the best known, the Elroy-Sparta State Trail, is the nation’s first rails-to-trails conversion. Wisconsin’s secondary road system is among the best in the na- tion. Looking for open country roads? We’ve got ‘em, complete with grazing cows in the distance for that true Midwest experience. Think you’re extreme? Give Wisconsin mountain biking a try. Our rolling hills make for intense off-roading adventures. Plus Wisconsin’s landscape takes you to beautiful places you can’t see from the road. But it’s more than just our miles of well-groomed trails and beauti- ful scenery. Our active state advocacy group, the Bicycle Federation of Wisconsin, is dedicated to funding the sport. Wisconsin is also a favorite of world-class bicycle manufacturers. Companies such as Trek, Pacific Cycle and Saris love the combination of the state’s urban and country landscape and sports culture and have built their businesses here. So with that going for us, where else would you rather ride? Head on out and let the good times roll! 2 Find more fun at travelwisconsin.com or call 1-800-432-8747.
