THE 100,000 METRE T-SHIRT RIDE June 9, 2007

Saturday, June 7, 2008, is your opportunity to enjoy one of the best bike rides in Michigan. TCBA’s 29th annual T-SHIRT RIDE is one you don’t want to miss.

This year’s ride begins at the Laingsburg High School. Riders have three routes to choose from: 25K (17 miles), 50K (34 miles), and 100K (62 miles) loops. All routes start out together with each one splitting off at different mileage points to form their particular loop. Routes use rural Shiawassee County roads and merge together for the last 5 miles back to the starting point. For the ambitious riders opting for 100K, you will travel through Vernon, Byron, and Morrice. For those wanting a 50K spin through the countryside, you will enjoy much of the same moderately rolling terrain. There is also a 25K route geared for families with younger riders and those who aren’t quite ready for the longer routes.

Of course, along with all this exercise comes lots of great food. Laingsburg’s finest will be serving lunch for all riders at the High School. Longer routes will include rest stops with volunteers serving assorted fruits, beverages, and freshly baked cookies.

HELMETS ARE REQUIRED! ! ! !
