The 10th annual Tour de TART is just two weeks away! It’s TART’s signature event. The 19-mile, one-way bike ride from Traverse City to Suttons Bay is a family-friendly evening ride. Join us on Friday, August 13 and take a spin on our trails, enjoy a bayfront dinner and bus ride back to TC. Make plans to ride it, volunteer or do both!
Ride it—
Online registration is up and running at http://www.traversetrails.org/events/tourdetart/ We’re making this year’s ride extra special with the addition of local libations at the Suttons Bay Marina Park. The dinner will be catered by the Euro Stop Deli (we’re having local corn on the cob, Italian sausage with peppers and onions, salads, watermelon). We’ll also be having root beer floats for dessert again this year with local Wild Bill’s root beer and Cold Stone Creamery vanilla! Yum! The food stops will be catered by City Bike Shop and Brick Wheels and McLain Cycle will be helping out at the start and end of the event. So join all three bike shops and TART for the 10th Annual Tour de TART and receive a commemorative pint glass to keep. It’s sure to be a family-friendly good time.
Help out—
If you can lend a hand on the day of the event, we would be most grateful. Last year we had 76 volunteers pitch in to make the tour go smoothly and we’ll need at least that many again this year. To make things easier for you to volunteer, we’re using a volunteer website:http://www.volunteerspot.com/login/entry/78-62159969810
It’s super easy to sign up for the various volunteer opportunities. Please pam@traversetrails.org with any questions.
