Where to Bike Chicago offers a range of riding options for both novice and seasoned riders. The 72 rides (including 27 kids rides) take cyclists through Chicago’s parks, streets and paths as well as through suburban forest preserves and trails. Helping riders discover the natural wonders, historical treasures and vibrant communities of Chicago and the suburbs that can only be found while biking.

The hardcover, spiral-bound book features spectacular colour images of the city and suburbs and easy-to- use maps generated by the author using precise, up-to-date GPS mapping techniques. It also includes the author’s recommendations for exploring the city and suburbs by bike, along with a special section on the best rides for kids. Readers can make a quick decision about a particular ride by following advice in the At a Glance section which breaks down the distance, terrain and traffic patterns as well as the best way to get to the starting point by car or public transportation. The Ride Log guides the cyclist on how to navigate with ease what could otherwise be a difficult path. Other sections, such as “Before You Go”, “What to Take” and “How to Ride”, offer practical suggestions. And, a richly illustrated chapter on the “History, Culture and Leaders” of biking in Chicago give readers a better understanding of the city’s century-long love affair with biking. Meanwhile, the book’s compact size (6 ½” wide x 8 ¼” long) is designed to fit snugly into a backpack.
