  Summer Touring 101: Beat the Crowds
  
  Chasing other horizons

Not to worry-you can still bag some good scenery without having to stomach the crowds if you aim your sights just a little further off the main track. These less-trafficked alternatives will give you just as much riding pleasure as the main show.
