Hello, I am just getting into road cycling and I am wondering if there are any races close to/in Michigan. I know I am no way even close to racing, just curious + for future reference.

Thanks a lot.

Telephone, a computer, the internet, a couple of good links...let your fingers do the walking.

Chances are more people, more races, so s.e. michigan. Wednesday nights at Gratten (sp?) over near Grand Rapids is really nice. I don't think there's anyting up in TC, but there should be... perfect terrain, etc.. I'd guess UP'ers will have to head over to WIS, but I haven't lived in state for years.

Looks excellent! I wonder if they're not trying to get this up and running for future state champ race routes...

The State Road Race used to encircle the Sugarloaf ski area with the hills north of Cedar (1987-88-89). I challenge anyone to ride that region and then say that Michigan is flat.
