Arcadia, Wisconsin

I am going to be in Arcadia for a few days next week and was wondering if there are any trails and a place to rent a bike. I would atleast like to ride around the town if possible. Is anyone familiar with this area that can point me in the right direction?

Thanks

I ride a 57ish cm road bike or a 18-20" mountainbike.
Unfortunately my schedule is going to be pretty cramped due to work but I am hoping to get a ride in. I have never been to Wisconsin and want to be able to say I rode a bike there, even if its a wallyworld special
Are the roads clear enough to ride in Wisconsin this time of year?

Brone's Bike Shop in Fountain City may be able to help too.., or add to FrogButter's suggestions.

You picked a nice area to ride, much different than this part of the state (flat). Racing down there is always a joy for gravity-challeneged riders.

Roads can be iffy at best. Depends on what you're use to, I guess. I've been out on a my CX bike the last two weekends, but a few more inches of snow will put the kibosh on that for a few days/weeks.
