Spring is in the air! Nothing feels better after a long winter, than a beautiful spring bike ride! My husband and kids are tuning up their bikes to start their favorite weekly ride around Lac LaBelle. My girlfriend and I have committed to a daily ride, so my bike is on its way to Wheel and Sprocket, a local bike shop, for a much needed tune up. Click here to see the calendar of their events.
If you are considering bike riding in Wisconsin, here are some great resources. Bikewisconsin.com outlines various tours across our beautiful state, and they have a link to google maps for bikers, highlighting safe, biker friendly routes. OnMilwaukee.com highlights 5 bike routes within an hour of Milwaukee.
My favorite trail is the newly expanded Oconomowoc Bike Trail, starting at the Imagination Station Playground. My associate wrote a nice article on this trail last year.

Waukesha County is full of fun filled attractions for your entire family and is located 30 minutes from Milwaukee. Did you know that Waukesha County has 77 lakes? These lakes provide many hours of fantastic fishing, boating, swimming, skiing, sailing and beaches. In addition, you won’t need to travel far for a fireworks show on the 4th of July. Many of the lakes have their own fireworks display. What ever your lake desire, we have just the place for you. If you are an outdoorsman, you will find plenty of space in the over 200 acres Waukesha County has for riding horses, hiking, biking or just walking one of the many trails. Like the fine arts, don’t worry, Waukesha County has you covered. Located in Waukesha County you will find the Waukesha Symphony Orchestra, Carroll Players, Waukesha Civic Theatre, Waukesha Choral Union and summer outdoor concerts at the Les Paul Band Shell, which is located in Cutler Park in the City of Waukesha and lastly, Oconomowoc also has concerts at City Beach. As you can see, Southeastern Wisconsin has many outstanding restaurants from fast food to ethnic cuisine. So get in your car and take a ride because there are several great destinations to see.
In my next several posts I will be writing about all of the Lakes located in the Lake Country Area in Wisconsin, so please come back and read about all the wonderful lakes located in Southeastern Wisconsin.
