Saturday, November 7, 2009 bike riders from throughout the U.S. and Canada converged to participate in one of the premier cross country bike races in the country - The Iceman Cometh . Having watched the start of this race many times in its 20 year history, the weather was outstanding on Saturday. I also watched the start of the race last year with 6 inches of snow on the ground and it was still coming down. Racers started in the Village of Kalkaska, rode a grueling 27 mile race through the trails of the Pere' Marquette National Forest and finished in Traverse City at Timber Ridge. Economically, these bike riders were a huge boost to the area's tourism. Why not find your homewaters and discover all the fun to be enjoyed in Northwest Michigan.
