Our friends at the Portage Cyclery are hosting the "Tour De Portage" Road Bike Ride Saturday, May 19th.
Pick your distance to tour the beautiful landscapes of Portage County--we have scouted 50-mile, 30-mile and 20-mile routes. Those riding the 50 & 30 mile distances will leave at 10 AM. Those riding 20 miles depart at 12 Noon. All rides depart from the Portage Cyclery,

This is a road ride through some of the Portage County scenic areas. A certified bicycle helmet and accessories are required to join the rides.
The Portage Cyclery is providing live musical entertainment and food from 12:30 to 3:30. This is open to the general public. The band will be The Scuttlebums which plays folk/rock. Food will be provided in exchange for a donation to the Portage Park District. All funds received will go to benefit the continuing maintenance of Portage County Parks and Trails.
