MGST History
The Downriver Cycling Club tradition is to celebrate the advent of the cycling season by sponsoring the MGST on the first Sunday each May. DCC has organized this annual regional event on the first Sunday of May since 1984. Up to 1,200 riders from southeast Michigan and beyond participate in this day-long supported tour through Huron-Clinton Metroparks and rural roads in southern Wayne and Monroe counties. Registration fee includes a complete all-you-can- eat pancake breakfast, plenty of homemade cookies, plus all the usual amenities. Specially-designed MGST commemorative t-shirts are available for pre-order up until April 23rd.
Club members pitch in to help with the chores planning an event of this scope entails. Workers gather to plan and evaluate routes, mark the routes, order food, make sure cookies will be on hand and solicit day of event volunteers. Everyone is encouraged to sign up as a volunteer to work on the day of MGST, and those who do receive a free t-shirt and pancake breakfast. Friendly faces will be needed to fill the many spots needed to run the event, including, registration area workers, food area workers, mobile SAG and several more.
