Presented by: The Voyageur 200 and North Bay Mountain Bike Association
Couch to a Voyageur is a new conditioning package including 16 conditioning rides to get ready to participate in the 60km or 30km distances of The Voyageur 200 gravel event on August 16, 2025.
The Voyageur 200 has four race distances to choose: the premier 200km and the 100km distances are for experienced riders. We like to say the 200km race is the toughest bike race in Ontario, maybe Canada, but the 60km distance is for everyone! In 2025 we are introducing a 30km distance to add more inclusivity to The Voyageur 200. The Nipissing District has hundreds of kilometers of beautiful remote trail systems and gravel backroads. By creating The Voyageur 200 we want to promote this area as a premier destination to explore.
Between June 15th and August 10th, we will provide 16 group rides for both distances. The rides will include a guided ride and technical tips for riding the Nipissing District’s beautiful gravel roads and trails. The package also includes a one-year membership with the North Bay Mountain Bike Association.
