17th Annual LGBT Bike Tour

July 25 - 27, 2008, will mark the 17th annual gathering of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender outdoor enthusiasts in Northern Michigan. The weekend of outdoor fun centers around a bicycle tour for riders of all ability levels. Although, not all participants will actually ride a bicycle. In its most successful years, attendance has passed 100 campers. Participants come from all over Michigan and even surrounding states and Canada. Many of last year's participants had attended 10 or more previous events.

The Bike Tour is an all-inclusive weekend. Your registration includes two nights of rustic camping, evening meals served at the campsite on Friday & Saturday, continental breakfast on Saturday & Sunday, your choice of bicycle rides or the scooter/moped route with road support, group activities, entertainment and evening bonfires. A Sunday canoe trip is a popular optional activity. À la carte registration options are available to suit individual needs. Register by June 1st to qualify for the early bird discount prices.
