About this event

Welcome to Shoreline West Day 7! (43 miles)<br /><br />The final day, Shoreline West ends with a scenic smorgasbord!! As you pedal through the historic and endlessly scenic Tunnel of Trees, along the shores of Lake Michigan and sneak a peek of the Mighty Mac on your way to our final destination of Mackinaw City, your mind is sure to be overflowing with all of the memories made over the past days. The final day is a beautiful send off and sure to fill your feed with awesome pics.<br /><br />Passing through the town of Cross Village, be sure to stop and check out the Legs Inn where we’ll have a Super SAG stop complete with snacks and hydration. The historic building is built on a bluff overlooking the lake, so it’s a great place to fuel up while looking out on the lighthouses and islands visible from the back. As we cycle past Sturgeon Bay and reach Cecil Bay, make sure to stop by the Cecil Bay Trading Post and grab yourself an ice cream cone! If you’re riding the bus back, make sure to get here by noon so you’ll have pleeeenty of time to enjoy pictures at the Mackinac Bridge!<br /><br />Once you see the unmistakable towers of the Mackinac Bridge, you’ll know that you’re nearing our destination. Enjoy these last few miles, visit Fort Michilimackinac which began in 1715 as a French outpost, then head back to the Mackinaw City Rec Center. Here we bid our new and old friends goodbye, rest our legs and start planning for next year!<br /><br />The Post-Tour Bus back to Traverse City and Montague departs Mackinaw City Recreation Center at 2 pm. If you are riding the post-tour bus, you will not have time to visit Mackinac Island.
