My Madison, Wisconsin experience last summer brought a new niche to the bike tour this year. Riding in the woods will still happen on Thursdays but Fridays/Saturdays now have the option of pedaling the Novi/Northville Pavement "Juice" Bar Tour. Some of these juice bars on a rare occasion have sports on multiple televisions and chicken wings to eat. The tour touches maybe 100 yards of exposure to the main road traffic; the rest of the ride is on sidewalks and through neighborhoods. There are a lot of healthy establishments to choose from along the ride.
With that, the 2014 riding schedule:
April 24 - Island Lake

Sunday morning riding (the Church of Tim) will again commence this year at various locations throughout the area. Hope to see you all out there on the trails or in the parking lot.
