There's been quite a bit of interest in meeting up to ride! If you don't have a bike or you're not wanting to bring yours, I did call the lovely Mackinac Island Tourism folks and a couple of vendors will be open during our stay: http://www.rybabikes.com/ <http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.rybabikes.com%2F&h=gAQHzTWnA> http://www.mackinacbikes.com/ It looks like Grand Hotel rents bikes, too, but I haven't been able to nail down whether or not they'll be available during our stay. Their reservation staff will be available on Thursday, April 28. Again, if you're looking to meet up and ride, please message me off the listserv. I'll share my contact information there.

Mackinac Island is a gorgeous place to explore...and cycle!

Weather-permitting, of course, I'd like to log some miles during our visit for the Rural Libraries Conference and would love to ride with other enthusiasts.

The cost to bring your bike on Shepler's Ferry is $10.00. Grand Hotel has outdoor bike parking across the street behind the Pro Shop. (I'll be checking on indoor storage options.)

If you're interested, please message me off the listserv: deckervillelibrary@gmail.com
