Bicycling Through Paradise

Kathleen Smythe, Chris Hanlin

A revised edition of the award-winning book of historically themed cycling tours in and around Cincinnati, Ohio.

Bicycling Through Paradise: Historical Rides Around Cincinnati includes nineteen historically themed cyclist tours for all abilities centered around Cincinnati, Ohio. Written by two longtime cyclists-one a professor of history and one an architect-this book dives into the details of local landscape and history encountered along the route. Rides combine familiar destinations like Lunken Airport, Eden Park, and Loveland Castle with lesser-known sites like Underground Railroad stations, ruined stone canal locks, and a nineteenth-century socialist commune, all located in and around the Greater Cincinnati area. Stops along the way include public parks, covered bridges, and one-room schoolhouses.

Each chapter includes a QR code to link readers to a companion Community Page where cyclists will find downloadable turn-by-turn directions and wayfinding photos, plus a place for cyclists to share their feedback, making this book an interactive experience.
