Ride to this tasty annual event to enjoy fresh Michigan strawberries over shortcake. DUE TO FORECAST 95F, THE RIDE START HAS BEEN MOVED UP TO 11AM TO BEAT THE HEAT.  The main route takes the RAT roads directly to Alden's historic RR Depot following two of Antrim County's Chain of Lakes to arrive at the festival when it opens at noon. The Bonus Loop continues from there on the RAT 40-mile route, and follows a third lake.  Maps provided.  Ride cancels for rain.

Distance: Main route 30 miles, Bonus Loop 10-12 miles
Pace: 14-17 mph, faster riders also welcomed
Terrain: A couple of hills, mostly on the climb up from Torch Lake
