Tucked Between Madison And Minneapolis Is Wisconsin's Tiny City Called 'Bicycling Capital Of America'
From limestone tunnels and rolling prairie rides to ice cream stops, fiberglass giants, and June's Butterfest, this Midwest gem pedals pure charm. Tucked between Madison and Minneapolis, Sparta, Wisconsin, has been hailed as "Bicycling Capital of America" since 1990. The city sits at the confluence of the Elroy-Sparta State Trail and the La Crosse River State Trail, two of the region's favorite cycling routes. The world's largest cyclist statue, Ben Bikin, stands in the heart of town and greets over 60,000 Elroy/Spartas riders each year. Annual highlights include the weeklong Will To Ben tour, the 4th of July Bicycle Parade, and other community-centric rides and workshops organized by the Sparta Bicycling Club. The historic Elroy and Sparta State trail stretches 32 miles of wetland, prairie, agricultural, and unglaciated terrain.
