THE MIDWEST'S MOST POPULAR CENTURY BIKE TOUR

Explore autumn in the southwest Michigan countryside at this annual recreational bike tour. From hard-core, kit-wearing packs to families with little ones fresh off their training wheels, ACC offers fully-supported 15, 25, 37, 62, 75, or 100-mile routes through forests, orchards, and vineyards fragrant and lush from the harvest. The positive community vibe is undeniable, drawing over 4,000 riders year after year. Whether you’re a serious cyclist or just a bit bike-curious, consider giving this 40+ year tradition a spin.

Local Tip: Host village Three Oaks is among our most charming, so take time to wander. Hungry? Staymaker, Froehlich’s, and Oaks Eatery each offer unique takes on comfort food. Dive bar fans will delight in Tomcat Tavern’s surprisingly craft approach to cocktail classics.
