Plaid jersey’s are earned by riding your bike around the perimeter of the Upper Peninsula on a 1,200 mile journey. This is the history of Chasing Plaid.

Each year I chat with other bikers while riding thousands of miles, and I work with safety planners throughout Michigan on issues and upcoming potential projects. It gives me a unique perspective to hear what bikers are thinking, experience what bikers are experiencing, and work with people that can and do implement changes to make biking safer.
