2009 Fantastic Midwest Bike Tours

The 2009 Motorcycle Tour Season has begun!  Have you prepared your bike for riding season? If not, you better get started on that first! Once your bike is ready to go, you will want to start planning some bike tours! Below are a few suggestions that you won’t be disappointed with. 

The Wonderful Mississippi River Run Tour

The Mississippi River Run Tour is loved by many riders.  Some of you may have driven the river road but have not explored into Wisconsin farther.  If that sounds like you, then you are missing out on a great ride. It will be a slow ride as you wander through valleys and coulees to many different destinations. On the way you will experience towering bluffs, rolling farmland, and stunning forested valleys.

Things to consider experiencing on the way:

• Bullfrog Fish Farm
• Crystal Cave
• Devil's Punch Bowl
• National Eagle Center
• Panoramic Scenic Overlooks

Wisconsin Rural Back Roads Tour


The Wisconsin Rural Back Road Tour is a great ride for all you bikers that are looking to get off the beaten path.  If you are looking to see what Wisconsin is really like then this is the tour for you! The Great River Road to the south is a great ride, but I recommend going much further. On this tour make sure to keep your eyes open because we will probably have to stop for deer, grouse, pheasant, turkey, and possibly bears! It is the incredible scenery, rich wildlife, and great roads that make this tour a must travel.

• Interstate State Park

The north shore of Wisconsin and Minnesota is a great place to explore!

This tour has something to offer for everyone so make sure to bring the whole family along! Take this tour at a slow pace to allow more time for sightseeing.
