    Sounds like a plan. We could start out around my place (about an hour north of the MI/IN border). Head up north, ride around for a day, then bbq and come home.


    any takers?

    If you are coming up toward the Canadian border, I would be in for sure. Really enjoyed our ride last year up the Niagara Parkway. Matter of fact, just did that ride again today. Pretty cool near Lake Ontario. Let me know what your are planning and I will do my best to link up with you.

    I had a blast last year and would very well consider riding again, depending on the date. Will be in California and Hawaii most of May but other than that I should be free. Keep the updates coming
    I'll be riding from the easst side of Cleveland

    Here is a possible route.

    start in my area (one hour north of MI/IN border) and take the highway over to us 31. take us 31 up the shoreline of the lake to macanaw. I can have my grill at a park in macanaw where we can buy some grub and grill dinner.

    then heading home take 75 to 131, and then to old 131 for more scenic fun riding.

    Thoughts? Concerns? Criticisms? Jokes? better ideas?

    I live in Clarkston, MI off I-75. I could meet you up north. I'd probably take US 23 probably from Standish then along Lake Huron. It depends on the timing.
