Tour Da Lake

This weekend isn’t the only weekend with exciting events happening. Later into the summer, on June 21st, the Tour Da Lake is taking their ride around Lake Gogebic. This annual ride is a nice, community ride is open to all who want to participate. Registration is open now, make sure to get in early to get the best price and an included shirt!

Group Rides going Strong

The Sisu Dirt Crew group rides have been going strong, kicking off the riding season with a few rides in miners and this week, down to WinMan. The trails have been in perfect condition, and the community has been good, so anybody and everybody thinking about coming out and joining the ride should, everyone is welcome!

With all the exciting events coming up this weekend and into the summer, be sure to be on the lookout for anything exciting happening around the area!
