Sixteen hundred miles/2600 kilometers of magnificent riding. That's the
equivalent of bicycling halfway across North America! Bikeways in
Chicago and Milwaukee lead to signed rural road routes near the shore.
Paved trails along abandoned rail beds bring you to delightful small
towns. Around a bend, on a hidden peninsula's rural road, the Lake
emerges in your view as a sparkling blue sight. The Door and Traverse
Peninsulas will bring delight to your pedal strokes as you meet
bicyclists simply enjoying a day or two of riding.
Sleeping Bear and Indiana Dunes National Lake shores will amaze you.
The 300+ mi. (480+ km.) of National and State Forests will enchant you.
These forests extend 50-100 mi. (80-160 km.) inland and are interlaced
with Mt. bike trails. The vivid blue of the Lake will entice you to
jump in to it! You'll pull out your fishing pole and catch monsters of
the deep blue. All this without leaving the United States!
