If you listen carefully, you might hear the laughter of kids who are part of the Michigan Biking Brigade. They are an unstoppable crew of young pedaling pirates, fearless and funny, who rule the bike lanes, pathways and trails of the state. Their leader, a cool imaginary character named Wheelie Wombat, is possibly the coolest marsupial on two wheels. He wears a helmet styled like a fluffy wombat head and a cape that flaps in the wind. He leads the brigade with his handlebar mustache twirling in the breeze, pedaling a shiny, purple, superhero bike Wheelie Wombat and the Biking Brigade aren't your ordinary biking enthusiasts. They look for the funniest and most exciting adventures. They race against squirrels, chase after ice cream trucks, and sometimes they even bike backwards! They laugh so hard that birds start to chirp along, and their giggles can be heard echoing across the lakes. In the world of Michigan, the sun smiles down at them, the wind whistles their biking songs, and the trails await their tires' tracks. With Wheelie Wombat leading the way, the Michigan Biking Brigade proves that Michigan isn't just the 'Great Lakes State', but it's also the 'Great Bikes State'.
