In case you hadn't noticed, another champion has reached the pinnacle of 40 years of leadership. That would be the Cycle Conservation Club of Michigan (CCC). Is it a coincidence that the Penton brand and the CCC share the same anniversary year? I think not. As one of the premier off-road cycle trail organizations in the world the CCC of Michigan has withstood the assaults on the off-road sport to become a cornerstone of what it takes to make a successful state trail system. Want lots of miles? It's got it with 3000+ you can ride all week and never touch the same piece of ground twice. Want a place to stay? You can do everthing from the primitive camping to staying at a lodge. Want special events? Kids Camps, Color Tours, Family trailrides, enduros and more are hosted by the CCC year after year. Want a group that digs in for your right to pursue happiness? The CCC legislative team just this year worked thru bill HB 4323 Public Act 240 to allow ORV travel on public streets. As an ex-Michigander and CCC member, I use the CCC as the benchmark to judge other trail systems; there are few that can compare to the CCC.
So the next time you get a chance to travel for off road riding, check out Michigan and the CCC, get your DNR sticker and get ready for some great riding! Go to: //www.cycleconservationclub.org
