Thinking of taking a road trip with a buddy to do some road biking. I live in Madison, Wi and would like to get some ideas on where some good hilly roads would be and warm weather 60s. It would be a long weekend type trip - so time would be limited. Any ideas, thanks,

No matter how far you drive you will not get warm weather from Wisconsin. Wisconsin only has cold weather this time of year. :D

Maybe south of here. It was a high of 42 last weekend.
Although this weekend is looking better. (50's)

Check the weather channel.North Texas thru South Carolina looks good. So California too.Obey speed limits.

You would have to go somewhere north of South Florida to get the 60's because it is 76 here right now.Perhaps the Clermont or Mt. Dora areas around Orlando would be in the 60's and those are hilly areas as well.Probably a long roadtrip from Wisconsin though.

Only one solution for a weekend trip --- find a buddy with a pilot's license.

Ride your bike and you'll warm no matter which way you go.
