4 events in Holland, Michigan

The Westside Wander

[WW collage.png]

Holland and South Haven are two of Michigan’s most beloved beach towns so we figured, why not connect them?

We’re partnering with the fine folks at Velo City Cycles in Holland for an overnight wander along the west side of our beautiful state. And for this trip, we’re leaning into a couple of our favorite Bs: bikes and BBQ. Saturday night, after our ride into South Haven, we’ll settle in and enjoy some seriously good BBQ.

We’ll be staying at Kal-Haven Outpost – 50 acres of peaceful nature right along the Kal-Haven Trail.

Sunday starts with a pancake breakfast, followed by some time to explore before we roll back toward Holland.

This route is packed with everything we love – scenic trails, quiet dirt roads, and glimpses of Lake Michigan woven between our favorite beach towns. We’ll stop for lunch in Saugatuck on Saturday, then switch things up on Sunday as we head inland, riding through the Allegan State Game Area.

The Westside Wander is the perfect way to get your fix of Michigan’s summer beauty.

WHAT'S THE STORY?

• Lots of details on our website, http://www.holland100.com.

• The Holland 100 has several different routes: The 17 mile route goes to our pancake breakfast stop and back. All other routes include the pancake breakfast, as well as additional stop(s) and food.

• Children 4-16 are half price, and children 3 and under ride free. Trailers are welcome. Children are required to stay with a responsible adult for the duration of the ride.

• All riders must be registered, for liability issues. Both riders on a tandem, for example, must register and pay.

• The Holland 100 remains a self-start tour. We actively encourage more competitive and fast-paced riders (those at 18mph+ averages) to start early (close to 7:00 a.m.) in order to be ahead of more leisurely cyclists.

Join us for the 12th Annual Heroes 5K run /2K walk, a charity event hosted by Shields of Hope that aims to spread hope, love, and encouragement to those impacted by cancer in the West Michigan community.

We remember Shauna Smith, who bravely fought cancer, and honor Thoe Kok, who is currently battling brain cancer. The event is open to everyone, including public safety, EMS, and military personnel, who are encouraged to participate in full gear.

We invite those affected by cancer to join us in honor of or in memory of a loved one who has faced or is facing this challenging fight.

Remember, NO ONE FIGHTS ALONE! While this is not a timed event, a clock will be provided.
