Product Description

Book Description

An updated and expanded edition of the definitive guidebook to a bicycler's paradise. "Paradise" indeed is how many bikers think of upstate New York's Finger Lakes region, including the authors of this handy guide. Even aside from the lakes themselves--closely grouped, deep, cool "fingers" among the hills--the area features waterfalls and gorges, wineries and museums, cities and farms, all connected by an extensive network of well-maintained paved roads. And all this can be visited in a day of leisurely cycling--with time out for a swim. Mark Roth and Sally Walters's collection of tours has long been a trusted companion of Finger Lakes bike-trippers. Now the members of the TNMC--a club devoted to biking and outdoor recreation in the area--have revisited and revised each scenic tour. And they've added a special new section detailing the best bike routes around each of the 10 Finger Lakes--a popular local challenge. Like all of Countryman's bike books, 30 Bicycle Tours in the Finger Lakes Region includes clear mile-by-mile directions, detailed maps, and notes on the history and culture of the countryside you'll be cycling through.

4.0 out of 5 stars Finger Lakes by Bike, May 13 2000

This review is from: 30 Bicycle Tours In The Finger Lakes Region 3e (Paperback)
The Finger Lakes region is a wonderful area to explore by bicycle! Blue, deep lakes; green, cool forests; and red, brick towns like Cornell, contribute to the anticipation of turning a corner, or cresting a hill. For first time visitors, Sally Walter's and Mark Roth's book is like having a local take you on the ride, pointing out a waterfall, a place to stop for lunch, or which hill is a killer and worth the climb. It's like seeing the area for the first time, the colors, smells, impressions, with a tour guide in your back pocket. The book gives clear directions and mileages. Good advice on route choices. And this updated version has the local eateries and bikeshops categorized. It easy to string several of the suggested rides together for a longer tour. Or, pick one with a bail out for the less mileage inclined. While we did not do all the rides in the book, the one's we did do were just as described. Use the book if you are planning a trip to the Finger Lakes, even if you don't take your bike.
