Join us Saturday, May 21, 2016 for Tour De Max!

Tour de Max is an annual bicycle tour through Marshall County, Indiana sponsored by Culver Tri Kappa. Proceeds from the ride are used in a manner that enriches our community as a whole. Among the many programs and projects we fund are college scholarships for high school seniors, as well as continuing education grants, a annual student art show, the Culver Community Schools' nurse, books and supplies to the school library, Pathfinders, Real Meals, Beaman Home, Riley Children's Hospital, and many other community events.

Bike Routes:

10 Mile Route
Beginning in Culver, riders can take a 10-mile ride around Indiana's second largest natural lake, Lake Maxinkuckee. Enjoy the rolling hills, beautiful homes, and lake views as you travel clockwise around the lake.

30 Mile Route
For a bit more of a challenge, riders can add another 20 miles to the lake route. The route has changed a bit from last year but will still take you south for a ride along the Tippecanoe River before heading north again. Click on the section title to view the map.

63 Mile Route
To complete a metric century, you'll follow the 30 mile route but split off from them around mile 15 for more countryside riding before joining back up at Germany Bridge on the Tippecanoe River. You'll head back to the Train Depot and then head north for another 18 miles. Click on the section title to view the map.

Most roads are two lane country roads and all are marked for the ride.
