Tour Highlights

Journey beyond the bustling streets of Detroit and into the heart of Michigan's beautiful waterfront communities and scenic countryside, where we'll spend three days cycling along picturesque riverfronts, charming historic neighborhoods, peaceful country roads, and the shores of the Great Lakes. And for a little international adventure, we'll cross the border into Windsor, Ontario, Canada, discovering two countries, two cultures, and spectacular views of the Detroit skyline along the way!

Rich in automotive history, cultural diversity, and groundbreaking musical traditions, Detroit offers the perfect blend of scenic cycling, farm-to-table cuisine, local craftsmanship, and legendary American music. From the birthplace of Motown to the city that pioneered techno, Detroit has shaped the soundtrack of generations. Along the way, we'll discover the neighborhoods, local farms, markets, and people who continue to bring new energy to this remarkable region.

And when the sun goes down, trade your cycling shoes for dancing shoes as we celebrate the unmistakable sounds of the Motor City with a special Pedals & Jam music experience. From the soulful harmonies of Motown legends to the electronic beats of Detroit techno, we'll explore the artists, stories, and musical innovations that put Detroit on the world stage.

And the experience doesn't end there! We'll take our adventure across the international border into Windsor, Canada, experiencing the Detroit River from both sides and discovering the food, culture, and local traditions that connect these neighboring cities. Throughout the weekend, expect authentic Detroit flavors, hidden local gems, a little Motor City nostalgia, and a few surprises along the way!

Come for the cycling. Stay for the music. Leave with a little Motor City soul!
