We like to say the 200km race is the hardest bike race in Ontario, maybe Canada, but the 60km distance is for everyone! In 2025 we are introducing a 30km distance to really add more inclusivity to The Voyageur 200. The Nipissing District has hundreds of kilometers of beautiful remote trail systems and dirt roads.
