THIS TOUR RUNS AUGUST 9-14 AND STARTS & ENDS IN MUSKEGON, MI
Our New for 2026 Tour is your chance to ride from Lake Huron all the way across to Lake Michigan, 100% paved with about 90% of our riding on traffic-free rail trails, side paths, or protected bike lakes! We'd like to be 100% traffic-free, but occasionally each trail uses a small portion of public road.
Your registration fee gets six days of fun, 5 nights of lodging with breakfast, 2 tour dinners, and our wonderful sag-wagon lunch daily, if desired. Maps, staffing, and support will help make this a great trip for you! Special Bonus- we've designed this tour to start and finish at the Lake Express Ferry Dock in Muskegon, making it ideal for guests coming from Milwaukee and points west!
This tour is one of our low-cost price leaders for 2026! The other similar priced tours are the Bay City Great Lake to Lake Tour, and the River Towns on the Mississippi tour. Due to their very attractive prices, additional discounts are not available on these 3 tours.

Plan your arrival in Muskegon to allow for an optional ride to Whitehall for the tire-dip Photo opportunity. Check in at our hotel in time for the group happy hour & orientation at 5 p.m., and dinner later.
We sag you via motor coach to the opposite side of the state, over to Bay City on the sandy shores of Lake Huron! We'll commence our ride and enjoy an overnight stay at Midland.
Today enjoy a second 30+ mile ride to Clare. We're staying overnight at the famous Doherty Hotel, just blocks off the Pere Marquette Trail!
It's a big day, with almost 100 Kilometers or about 60 miles on the Pere Marquette Trail to Reed City, then south on the White Pine to Big Rapids for the night. This is the longest day of the tour and will be much fun for you!
Enjoy about 50 miles on the fully-paved White Pine Trail, into Comstock Park for the night.
Today we close the tour with a 30-mile run back to Muskegon. We'll use the Musketawa Trail for much of the riding today, and with a little luck the construction currently on the west half of the trail will be complete (otherwise our routing includes about 20 miles on quiet country roads).
The tour ends with arrival back in Muskegon. Thanks!
