内容简介
With its variety of landscapes, gregarious locals, delicious
food and great cycling tradition, Italy is a biking paradise. From

coast, to top-of-the-world panoramas in the Dolomites and touring
historical marvels around Rome, we've chosen the best rides for
every interest and ability level. Whether you want to test yourself
on an arduous climb into Sardinia's high country or tour languidly
through Tuscan vineyards, this guide gives you the best of Italy on
two wheels.
作者简介
Ellee is a freelance writer and has contributed to a number of
publications. She now works mostly for Lonely Planet guidebooks.
She authored Cycling Italy and has contributed to two additions of
Mexico, as well as the USA, Caribbean Isands, and Pacific Northwest
guidebooks.
Daughter of a bike shop owner in Little Rock, AR, Ellee was
introduced to mountain biking when she was a teenager and still
embarrassed to wear neon spandex (you've gotta to love the early
90's). Since then, education, employment, and fancy have landed her
all over the US and the world where her proclivity for mountain
biking has evolved into bicycle commuting, road cycling, working as
a bicycle tour guide, national and international cycle-touring,
endurance racing, and -for a short and sadistic stint- racing
cyclo-cross. She functions under the belief that there are few
better ways to travel and learn about a foreign place than on a
bike.
