About the event

Tour de TART
Get ready to roll! TART Trails is thrilled to host the annual Tour de TART on Friday, July 18, 2025, presented by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and Blue Care Network. This family-friendly ride promises an evening of fun, food, and fantastic views along the Leelanau Trail.

-Ride the Leelanau Trail – Start near Traverse City and cruise 14 scenic miles to North Park in Suttons Bay.

-Fuel Up – Enjoy two tasty snack stops along the way.

-Dine Bayside – Celebrate at the finish line with a delicious meal, a cash bar featuring local wine and microbrews, and great company.

-Easy Return – Kick back on a relaxing bus ride back to Traverse City, while your bike is safely transported in a secure truck.

Start Time:
Riders can hit the trail anytime between 4 PM and 6:30 PM. Due to West Grandview Parkway construction, the start of Tour de TART will be at DeYoung Natural Area, NOT Darrow Park. Parking at DeYoung Natural Area is limited, so we encourage participants to bike to the start. Additional parking is also available at Leelanau Studios and the Cherry Bend Trailhead.

Return Shuttle: Buses start rolling at 6 PM, with the last bus leaving at 9 PM sharp. Volunteers will keep an eye on your bike until you’re reunited back at the start. Each rider gets a numbered wristband to match their bike—no mix-ups, just smooth sailing.
