I am an endurance bicyclist and I have ridden the white pine trail all the way through to Cadillac. The white pine trail is not paved all of the way through to it's northern terminus. It does have a fine crushed limestone surface. After I finished the white pine trail I turned onto the M 55 and headed over to the bestie valley trail, witch runs until Frankfort, in Benzie county. I then rode up the US 31 to traverse city. From there I rode a good distance over to Charlevoix. I then took the north central trail into mackinaw city. I camped there before heading home.
