play around town Tasty Trails Why drive to your dining destination…when you can ride? Hop on two wheels to fi nd cyclist-friendly pit stops Easy in-town stops Whether you’re looping around the city or Lake Monona, you don’t have to roll far off the trail for a quick sip or bite to eat. Perched atop the Monona Terrace, the Lake Vista Café is a go-to stop on the Lake Monona Loop. On the east side, eat- eries such as Café Zoma and Th e Weary Traveler also of- fer unbeatable meals just off the Capitol City Path. If you’re venturing out west, the bike lane on Old Sauk Road of- fers a path to Barriques, one of many café stops for bikers throughout the city. Delicious destinations further afi eld Hop on the Military Ridge Recreational Trail in town and ride it toward Mt. Horeb and you’ll eventually hit Riley Tavern, a popular destination on Sundays for the all-you- can-eat pancake breakfast. Or, just west of Madison, Uphill Grind in Cross Plains dishes up a combination full-service coffee and bike shop on Bourbon Road (a leg on the Ironman Wisconsin bicycle route!) so you can get your coffee fi x and service your bike if it needs it, too. For mountain bikers ven- turing into the woods of the Kettle Moraine State Forest, a stop into Backyard Bikes and Ski LaGrange General Store off the John Muir Trail and Nordic Trail offers the perfect reward for surviving the rugged terrain: smoothies, sand- wiches and ice cream.
