The Ride Around Torch is an annual one-day 26, 63 or 100 mile bicycle tour on lightly trafficked rural roads primarily along the scenic shores of Torch Lake, Michigan’s longest and one of its most beautiful inland lakes with unusually clear, bright turquoise hued waters.
Several villages and hamlets lie along the lake’s shore including Alden, Eastport, Clam River and Torch River.
The ride is a recreational, social tour that is neither a race nor a test of strength although the very hilly 100 mile route can be a challenge.
A picnic lunch at the Elk Rapids Village Beach after the tour is included. Swimming is excellent!
