Product Details

Product Description

Brian Smith, New England Mountain Biking Association

An indispensable guide to riding of all types in Connecticut. Especially valuable to the entry-level cyclist, chock-full of valuable tips and information.

Product Description

Avid cyclist Andi Marie Fusco has explored hundred of miles of back roads in her home state to find the most scenic, uncrowded, and enjoyable cycling on both paved and dirt roads. As she explains in her introduction, "this book is your guide to all kinds across Connecticut. Some will challenge riders on hills replete with lung-searing climbs through the state's highest elevations...others will appeal to those who want to take an unhurried tour around a lake or along hidden dirt roads, stopping to picnic, swim, or just savour the journey. Other rides visit Connecticut's earliest colonial settlements, pass by the state's renowned wineries, and explore woodland trails." Rides range in length from a four-mile tail through a coastal reserve to a two-day tour of 114 miles. each chapter includes a map and information on mileage, terrain, level ofd difficulty, near-by bicycle shops, and lofting options (for the overnight tours), as well as detailed route descriptions. an overview chart at the front of the book provides information at a glance. Throughout, Fusco provides fascinating commentary on the history and culture of this charming and picturesque New England state.
