Additional 2014 Tracks

Hmm...  Ok, I generally like loops and I suppose others do too...  So, the track below is just that.

The Details-
 
At ~488 miles, the altered route skips thirty miles, fifteen miles of trail and fifteen miles of road, from White Cloud to 56th street of the point to point route.  Instead, starting in Reed City, you'll begin heading west towards Baldwin, on the Pere Marquette Rail Trail.  Just west of town, you'll pick up the P2P route and head north, all the way to Mackinaw City.  From Mackinaw City, you'll head south on the North Central State Trail (Part 1 / Part 2) all the way to Gaylord.  Then comes the unverified roadie section from Gaylord to Cadillac.  Once in Cadillac, you'll pick up the White Pine Rail Trail and head south back to Reed City.

There is a large parking lot in Reed City, where the Pere Marquette and White Pine Rail Trails intersect.   Park there.  There is a motel, bar, party store, etc. all within walking distance.
 
2014 Loop Track

A shorter loop will still start in Reed City, but only go to Mesick on the P2P route, then roadie riding it to Cadillac to pick up the White Pine for the return to Reed City.
