| What You Will Find on TrekByBike.com |
If you’re enthusiastic about cycling
like we are, you’ll agree that part of your enjoyment depends on knowing
what you will encounter along the way. At TrekByBike you’ll find detailed
information to help with your ride preparation. Slideshows are available with
most rides, and nearly all rides provide the option to download maps, profiles,
and turn-by-turn directions.
|
TrekByBike divides ride information into
four major areas:
|
| |
1. Cycling on the Road – ROAD
|
| |
2. Touring - TOUR
|
| |
3. Riding with Children - FAMILY
|
| |
4. Getaway Cycling Vacation - DESTINATION
|
Each category focuses on specific details
for the cycling activity: FAMILY offers information about rides that are easily
accessible, on traffic-free (no motorized vehicles) bike paths, and with some
entertainment for kids. ROAD rides show popular routes in a specific locale and
on back roads where possible. DESTINATION and TOURING suggest some of the most
scenic areas in the world.
|
Rides are rated in terms of difficulty, scenery,
road/trail hazards, and the best time of year to travel. You should use our difficulty
rating as mere guidance to assist you in selecting the appropriate ride. A self-assessment
of your own fitness level is a more accurate way to help you plan your cycling
activity.
