This week‘s ride seeks to explore some of the rideable gravel in and around the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Roughly 60/40 gravel to paved, this route loops around some of the fancy resorts on Prospect Hill before taking the SBHT to loop up and around Pyramid Point. We‘ll return down South Wheeler Rd (and if you feel up to it you can take quick hot lap around Ursa Minor/Major at Palmer Woods!) back to the park in time for the picnic. There are a few climbs (check the RwGPS link for elevation profile), but we‘ll stop and regroup periodically as this is a NO DROP ride...

A longer option for the first day of riding in Door County, WI. We‘ll plan on stopping at Mauricio‘s Mexican Restaurant (~mile 42) in Sturgeon Bay for lunch, and be back in time for happy hour. An "A" ride due to length, we‘ll take plenty of breaks and regroup to ensure nobody gets separated. We‘ll follow the coast southbound, with a hillier return up the middle of the peninsula. There should be lots of photo ops along the way (especially in Patowatomi State Park) so the pace will be modest but purposeful (expecting 14-16 mph when rolling).

This ride will be during the Door County Club Tour and will start in Fish Creek, WI. This 40 mile ride will leave at 9:30am from the Gibralter High School Parking lot (3924 WI 42 Fish Creek WI). It is a rolling country ride with a bathroom/coffee stop in Baileys Harbor at the 19 mile mark. We have attached the Ride With GPS file if you want to download onto your navigation device for directions.

New for 2026 is a regular gravel/adventure series, 2-3 times a month on Sunday mornings. Routes will vary from introductory to "spicy", generally running from 15 to 50 miles in length. Terrain will consist of a mix of mostly dirt/gravel, minimal tarmac connecting roads, and occasional sandy sections or singletrack. RwGPS navigation files will be provided for each ride... Join me as we explore some relatively new territory southwest of TC. This route straddles the definitions between "A" rides and "Gravel". Certainly a bit longer, we‘ll plan on stopping for lunch (or at least a long break) in Kaleva. Another 50/50 mix of gravel & paved surfaces, there do not appear to be any overly technical sections, so this week warrants an 8 on the 1 to 10 difficulty scale primarily due to length. Be sure to bring an extra water bottle...

A true northwest Michigan classic, the infamous Blood Ride! Actually, I have no idea who or how this got its name, but this route is well known to the local cycling community. Riding it CCW it unfortunately begins with a stretch up busy 4 Mile Rd to Hammond. Beyond that point traffic is light to nonexistent. Lots of pavement and some punchy hills around Arbutus Lake before we finally transition to gravel near Ranch Rudolph. Broomhead to Williamsburg, Bunker Hill to the TART trail. 50/50 gravel/paved, with clean, well-mannered gravel throughout (unless the graders have carved up fresh washboard!). On a difficulty scale of 1 to 10, overall this is probably about a 5, but the gravel sections are more like a 3.

It‘s time once again for the RAT! This year‘s recreational bicycle tour offers 4 scenic routes that follow the shoreline of the legendary Torch Lake, ranked by National Geographic as one of the world’s most beautiful lakes. Lakeside views, countryside farms and orchards, and rolling hills comprise the majority of the riding. Most riders opt for the signature 63 mile route, which circumnavigates the lake in its’ entirety. The shorter 26 and 40 mile routes manage to traverse southern portions of the lake, offering a similar experience for those looking for something a little less ambitious. New for 2026 is the Chain-O-Lakes Century – a route that envelops not only Torch, but many of the lakes that comprise the nearly 100 mile long Elk River Watershed. Early registration opens Feb 1st. www.cherrycapitalcyclingclub.org/RAT

4 night/3 day cycling tour of Manitoulin Island, Ontario. Arriving Sunday, the 26th of July, departing on Thursday, the 30th. This allows for a 4 night stay, with 3 full days of riding or other sightseeing activities available. We have made arrangements with the Manitoulin Inn in Mindenoya, who are offering a special room rate for club members. They have a total of 18 recently remodeled rooms, many overlooking Lake Mindenoya. There are also a number of campgrounds in and around Mindenoya if that sounds more interesting to you. Mindenoya is advantageous in that it’s centrally located on the island, and is fairly close to a number of attractions. Each day of riding can be different, with a variety of destinations and distances available. The island as a whole is a popular tourist destination, particularly so with cyclists as the roads are in great shape and the traffic is light and respectful. Late July is their peak season, with generally excellent weather and minimal bugs (so I’m told!). Because of this, if you intend to participate, make your reservations as soon as possible as virtually all options will be sold out next summer. For Manitoulin Inn reservations, call them directly at 1.877.270.0551 and state that you’re with the Cherry Capital Cycling Club (or reference my name) and you’ll be included in the group rate. Their website is www.manitoulininn.ca Rate quotes are as follows: Single Queen bed, 1 adult: $225/night (CAD) Single Queen bed, 2 adults: $235/night 2 Queen bed room, 2 adults: $250/night While they do not allow bikes in the rooms, they have a locked garage that will be available to us for storage needs. Note that as of this posting, all 18 rooms are available – but are sure to fill up well in advance of next summer. They do allow a penalty-free cancellation, but have requested at least a month‘s notice to allow rebooking. A variety of RwGPS road and gravel routes will be developed prior to the trip, so stay tuned..

4 night/3 day cycling tour of Manitoulin Island, Ontario. Arriving Sunday, the 26th of July, departing on Thursday, the 30th. This allows for a 4 night stay, with 3 full days of riding or other sightseeing activities available. We have made arrangements with the Manitoulin Inn in Mindenoya, who are offering a special room rate for club members. They have a total of 18 recently remodeled rooms, many overlooking Lake Mindenoya. There are also a number of campgrounds in and around Mindenoya if that sounds more interesting to you. Mindenoya is advantageous in that it’s centrally located on the island, and is fairly close to a number of attractions. Each day of riding can be different, with a variety of destinations and distances available. The island as a whole is a popular tourist destination, particularly so with cyclists as the roads are in great shape and the traffic is light and respectful. Late July is their peak season, with generally excellent weather and minimal bugs (so I’m told!).
