The Wisconsin Bicycle Map highlights the most favorable
bicycling conditions and rates all roadways. The map is split into
8 panels printed on 4 separate "maps". Each quarter section
map may be purchased separately, or all four may be purchased as
a set. The most recent version of the maps were updated in 2005.
Maps can be purchased at bicycle events, at bike shops, at the Bicycle

or by calling Wheel and Sprocket, toll free, at 800-362-4537.

The maps have routes marked according to their appropriateness for
cycling (level & speed of auto traffic, presence of shoulders
or bike lanes, etc.). The maps also have the state trails that do
not allow motorized vehicles in non-winter months. New features
of the 2005 edition include locations of all Wisconsin bike shops,
designation of local dirt roads, paved shoulder information for
state highways, and interchange and non-interchange crossing locations
for freeways. The maps are ideal for long-distance touring bicyclists
as well as casual recreational riders or transportation bicyclists.
County maps are available for free download from the WisDOT at http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/travel/bike-foot/bikemaps.htm.
