This review is from: Road Bike North Georgia: 25 Great Rides in the Mountains and Valleys of North Georgia (Paperback)

I purchased this book as reference material for a trip to Georgia. It is an absolute requirement for anyone wanting to ride wonderful roads with great scenery. Hats off to the author!

A few years ago, a group of my cycling buds and I decided that we needed to get away from the midwest winter here in Northwest Indiana/Chicago area by planning a cycling vacation in an area that was within a reasonable driving distance and featured decent weather (60+ degrees). I researched the areas that this book covers and we now make our annual trip in late March or early April to the North Central region of Georgia. The book contains biking routes in different towns and cities, so you can plan daily rides that allow you to bike only...no driving needed. Routes leave and return in the same town. A word of warning though...flat roads in the north central areas are hard to come by...foothills of the Appalachians! Whoo hoo!

Make sure to visit Cartecay Bicycle shop in Ellijay, GA. Good people! They will take care of your bike and give advice for local rides. They also have weekend group rides.
