Father Fred Charity Ride Northern MI

Quick video of an annual charity ride in Traverse City. Police escorted so no stops in the 50 or so mile loop...

I'm going to start putting in police escort requests for all my daily rides. Awesome.

When is this held? It's obviously all done for this year, but how about next year? Is it a huge turnout?

Held mid July every year. I'd guess there were ~400 or so riders... It's weekend long event. 120 mile poker run Saturday, bike show downtown Traverse City Saturday night and then the escorted ride on Sunday....
