TOMMBA and Raven Hill Discovery Center are collaborating to bring you the opportunity to Choose Your Wheels with the Pedal Pig & Pint Bike Tour event, Sunday, August 1st, 2021.

Pedal Pig Pint

Enjoy beautiful miles of wooded mountain bike trails or a scenic paved route around Lake Charlevoix, while supporting two exceptional non-profit organizations striving to enhance outdoor experiences in the area. Stiggs Brewing Company in Boyne City has generously offered to support this event with a Pig Roast, Pint and festive atmosphere for relaxing after the ride.

All riders start at Veterans Memorial Park in Boyne City and finish with a celebratory lunch at Stiggs Brewing Company.

Road cyclists can opt for a scenic, paved trail between Boyne City and Boyne Mountain in Boyne Falls, or the 42 mile tour along the north shore of Lake Charlevoix to the Lake Michigan shoreline trail. Then on to the Ironton Ferry and back to Boyne City along the south shore of Lake Charlevoix. 

Trail riders can choose from a network of beginner to advanced riding trails at Boyne Forest Trails or the Avalanche Trails. Advanced mountain bike cyclists might challenge themselves by combining both trails and the distance between them. 

“This is the only combined mountain and road bike event in the region,” explained TOMMBA spokesman Mike Labadie. “Whatever your choice of wheels, it will be a beautiful ride, and a great way to explore the area and support two great organizations.”
