One Response to “Amishland and Lakes Bike Tour- August 8 – 10”

   We’re from southwest Ohio and rode this 2 summers ago. We are looking forward to riding it again this year. ALL is a first-rate bike tour. The SAG stops are loaded with really good food and the stops were well placed within the rides. The food was tasty and plentiful at the Howe Military Academy.. and served quickly, no great waiting lines.
   Two summers ago we camped out at the academy, but this time we’re going to try staying in one of the dorms.
   The whole experience was a good one. Neighboring towns of LaGrangne and Shipshewana make great tourist spots with their stores, etc. and the Amish countryside is gorgeous… No cars… just horses and buggies.
   A definite ride for anyone who can make it to upper Indiana.
