Italy by Bike: 105 Tours from the Alps to Sicily (Dolce Vita)
Italy’s scenery is second to none worldwide, and there’s no better way to see it than by bike. This color photo-filled guide contains 105 itineraries, including 46 easy day-rides for families and beginners, 41 challenging routes for more seasoned riders, and 18 ambitious and demanding rides for experts. Each itinerary features a detailed route map as well as technical tips on terrain and elevation gains. A list of local restaurants for each tour, along with bike rental contacts and relevant web addresses and phone numbers, makes this guide especially useful.
Customer Review: Good for recreational cyclist.
Good route descriptions for the touring cyclist. The routes are a bit short and unchallenging for the expereinced cyclist or the cyclist seeking challenging training terrain. This is a good guide, and I have not found anything better. Recommend.
