Summetour 2000 Report
by Ed Noonan
Summertour is a 5 day leisurely tour of Michigan. Summertour 2000 started in Reed City on July 12. About 140 of us rode from Reed City to Silver Lake, stayed 2 nights in the State campground, rode from a selection of day rides on the second day, then rode to Manistee, where we stayed another two nights in the State campground, riding from a selection of day rides on the second day. From Manistee, on the fifth day, we rode back to Reed City. We had a relaxing time in beautiful weather enjoying such gourmet establishments as Dog-n-Suds in White Lake:
 Several of us rode self-contained from Lansing to the Summertour starting point in Reed City. |
 Much of the tour revolved around food stops. They were spectacular, like this bakery in Hart. |
 Several of us stopped at the County Dairy dairy bar along the Hart-Montague rail trail for chocolate milk, buttermilk and ice cream. Great stuff! |
 We actually had a quorum of the TCBA Board (Ed, Lenny, Tom & Lou) at Dog-n-Suds in White Lake. |
 Lovebirds Lou and Kathleen announced their engagement at Dog-n-Suds. |
 It was hot! Val & Gary ate ice cream. |
 Jim ate ice cream. |
 Tom and Linda ate ice cream. |
