Where To Bike Philadelphia

Author and cyclist Julie Lorch spotlights all this and more in "where To Bike Philadelphia", the local volume in a growing nationwide series. Right now, books on Chicago and Washington, DC also exist and many more are in the works.

Lorch, who bikes to work herself, likes riding around Philadelphia because the city is relatively flat. But for those days when you want a challenge, Manayunk is just a short pedal out Kelly Drive or Ridge Avenue.

She also cites the wide range of cycling clubs, one right for any enthusiasts experience, ability and interests.

Author Julie Lorch has mapped each and every ride, and included easy to follow directions, a difficulty rating from one to five stars, and a topographic profile for each route. With over 50 adult rides, Where to Bike Philadelphia will be a great guide for riders of all ages.
