 good for entry to all state parks on that day.\n\nRefreshments will be pro
 vided at rest stops and post-ride. Mechanical\, emergency\, and sag suppor
 t will also be provided. All adult riders will receive T-shirts\, and youn

 miles from Gooseberry to a rest stop at Twin Points Wayside\, where famili

 ooseberry.\n\n28-mile ride option: This ride is entirely on the GGST\, fro
 m Gooseberry through historic Split Rock Lighthouse State Park\, continuin

  Because it is an “out-and-back” ride\, bikers can turn around at any 
 time to return to the starting point.\n\n34-mile ride option: All on the t
 rail! Follow the GGST to the rest stop at Beaver Bay Wayside and continue 
 over the Beaver River Bridge on a separate trail. Turn left up the hill on
  the segment of GGT along the West Road and continue on the trail to Silve

 trail.\n\n55-mile ride option: Follow the GGST to Beaver Bay Wayside\, con
 tinue on the trail over the Beaver River Bridge\, and leave onto the segme
 nt of trail alongside West Road. Continues to Silver Bay\, where you will 
 make a loop north\, beginning by turning left on Penn Avenue. Turning righ
 t onto Lax Lake Road\, you'll bike to the intersection with Hwy 1\, and yo
 u'll notice our newer rest stop at the Lax Lake Road Boat Access. On your 
 way back down the hill\, you will stay right to travel down Cty Rd 4 to re
 turn to the Beaver Bay Rest Stop\, and from there\, you'll head back to Go
