Ride is flat and paved with some boardwalk.
Drinks and pizza at Aubree's after the ride on your own dime. We plan to ride every Monday, weather permitting. Feel free to email Darlene with questions.

Meet at 2:00 PM on Wednesday afternoons all summer at the Zukey Lake Tavern parking lot (5011 Girard Drive, Pinckney, MI). We've been given permission to park our cars at the far end of the parking lot (just as you enter off Girard, and before the first speed bump), with the assumption that most of us will stay to enjoy refreshments after the ride.
We'll pedal east to Whitmore Lake Road, then turn back, pedaling west to the end of the paved trail before returning to the parking lot (a total of about 23 miles round trip on the paved, predominately flat trail).
After returning to our cars, and loading our bikes, we'll gather on the roof-top deck at Zukey Lake Tavern for apres-pedal refreshments and socializing. NOTE: There's no live music on the deck, this year, but plenty of smiles. . .

PEDAL ACROSS LOWER MICHIGAN
Come join us on a fun bike ride this summer: Saturday, June 20 – Friday, June 26, 2026
The cost is only $210 for adults. With your meals add $130.
The 2026 route: Pentwater, Montague, White Cloud, Evart, Houghton Lake, Hale, Oscoda
Cost includes: SAG (support and gear) service, overnight facility uses for tent camping with showers and bathrooms, transport of luggage between sites, road markings and GPS cues for routes, daily watermelon stops, bicycle education, and children's activities!
The ride is 30‑60 miles per day for six days. The tour is limited to 700 participants.
Pedal Across Lower Michigan begins near Lake Michigan and meanders east, passing scenic, cultural, and historic sites. Many attractions will lure you from your bicycle – and you will have plenty of time to enjoy them. The route, which changes each year, generally avoids major urban areas. Sometimes a small downtown may be included for special interest, or for finding lunch or a snack. We use paved routes geared to the novice and intermediate touring rider. The daily distances and terrain combine to make PALM well suited to family bicycling. Some people bring their own sag and campers. Others stay in hotels along the way. This is a fun way to experience, see Michigan and get some exercise.
Let us know if you will come on this trip. You can register directly here: https://palmbiketour.org/

This is a new location for us in Whistler. Condo style accommodations, complementary ski valet at the foot of the gondola, and free shuttle service (less than a ten minute walk).
Whistler is known for its skiing and snowboarding in the winter and mountain biking and hiking in the summer. Other winter activities that are enjoyed in Whistler are cross country skiing (both classic and skate skiing), ice skating, snowshoeing, backcountry skiing, telemark skiing, and tobogganing. Summer activities enjoyed in Whistler include golfing, fishing, trail running, mountain biking, outdoor yoga, and hiking.
For skiing, arguably the main attraction of Whistler, the different run difficulties (easiest to hardest) are green (circle), blue (square), black (diamond), and double black (diamond). Throughout the year each run's difficulty stays the same.[19] There are many signs around the mountain that indicate the difficulty of the runs and there are "expert only" signs at the bottom of some chairlifts indicating that most of the runs accessible from that chair are black diamonds or double black diamonds.
