Book Overview
Most people's impression of the New York City area is that of a vast metropolitan and polluted environment, with heavy traffic, suburban sprawl, and bike-unfriendly motorists. Author Gerry Brooks has taken a closer look and discovered the many delightful quiet country roads and lanes that can be reached in a less than a two-hour drive from New York City. From the Connecticut shoreline to the riverbanks of Bucks County along the Delaware River, these 25 cycling tours in the tristate area can easily provide exercise and relaxation for hurried urbanites/suburbanites of Philadelphia and the New York City region. All tours are rated for their difficulty-from "easy" to "more difficult"-and range from the little known to the well traveled. Each ride description includes mile-by-mile directions, a combined map and mileage cue sheet, and tour options to shorten or extend a route. Road safety, of course, is also emphasized.
