Start: Anamosa

This route cuts through both Iowa and Illinois. Named after Poopy’s Pub and Grub or “Illinois’s Biggest Biker Destination,” you start out in Anamosa where you can find the National Motorcycle Museum. If you see a curious looking tree with tons of rings along its branches, you have probably stumbled upon the Hula Hoop Tree.
Continuing on your way, you will head out into the middle of the Mississippi River where you will find Iowa’s only island city, Sabula. While the city is relatively small, there is plenty to explore on the Island City Harbor.
After Sabula, you will enter Illinois and begin looping back around. Upon arriving back to Iowa, you will enter Dubuque. In Dubuque, you can take your ride to the Dubuque Arboretum and Botanical Gardens or the National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium.
