Explore Minnesota Bikeways: Northwest

The front side of "Explore Minnesota Bikeways: Northwest" contains: inset maps of Little Falls, Fargo/Moorhead, Bemidji, Grand Forks/East Grand Forks, Thief River Falls, Detroit Lakes, Crookston, and Fergus Falls; the northern part of the Northwest bikeways map; an illustration of the Heartland + 99 Tour; and bicycling safety tips. The back contains the larger bikeways map and a legend. MnDOT's bikeway maps serve as a reference guide illustrating major historical and cultural points of interest in Minnesota, public park lands and facilities, equipment, and safety information. They also depict road analyses for bicycle travel, location of paved road shoulders and off-road bikeways, and controlled access roads where bicycles are prohibited. There are 54 maps in the Statewide Series (1979-1983), 4 maps in the Statewide Quadrant Series (1986-1993), and 2 maps in the Metro Series (1989). Legislatively mandated, these maps were prepared as convenient guides to help bicyclists select their routes. Each map is unique and signifies a historical reference to the state of bicycle facilities at the time of publication
