Our signature event, Tour de TART, is right around the corner. Hit the trails for an evening ride to Suttons Bay! Now in its 8th year, the family-friendly one-way bike ride on the TART and Leelanau trails from Traverse City to Suttons Bay, will take place Friday, Aug 8. Celebrate this rural trail corridor connecting these two northern Michigan communities and experience parts of Leelanau County that you can't see from the road! Starting anytime between 4 p.m. and 6:30 p.m., riders will enjoy snacks along the 19-mile ride and a bayside meal at the Suttons Bay Marina, and then can relax on a bus ride back home. Bus service begins at 7:30 p.m. and the last bus departs at 10:00 p.m. Pre-registration is encouraged and can be done online (for a small fee), or pick up a registration form at the TART office (415 S. Union St. in downtown Traverse City) or at local bike shops. For complete event details, please go to http://www.traversetrails.org/events/tourdetart
