Wisconsin’s Roads Get National Recognition
Posted by Bikeverywhere, July 29th, 2010Upper Midwest riders have recognized the incredible roads of SW Wisconsin for decades, but in the last few days the word has gotten out to a wider population. In its bid for the 2014 Olympics, Chicago’s Olympic Committee picked a route around Blue Mounds State Park, west of Madison for the challenging terrain and the low traffic roads according to the New York Times. Chicago lost out, but cyclists can still ride the route. For a complete guide to the roads in the area, check the Madison and Dane County Bike Map.
Another national publication, Adventure Cycling, featured Trempealeau County, along the Mississippi River as another cyclist’s destination.
