I'll be in NE Michigan soon, and thinking about taking a day trip to ride around the NW corner, Mackinac, or even to the UP, which would require an overnight or 2.

I'll be traveling with a friend who is not as avid a cyclist as me, but would go along for 20 miles or so, possibly farther if weather is good, with few to no hills (we are both flatlanders!), and good breaks every 8-10 miles or so. Does that rule out Leelanau, or Sleeping Bear Dunes area, or Petosky area?

We'll drive over there, but bring bikes. Can anyone suggest a nice tour by car or by bike? I have not been to Mackinac in probably close to 30 years, and never to the NW side.
