    Default Great start to the season!

    Just thought I would post a POSITIVE post! Have had some really nice rides this season. Still a bit cool in Northern Illinois, and it feels good to be out on the Spyder with my honey.

    We are looking at doing the Lake Superior ride this year - in the dream stages.

    Enjoy your year!

    If you leave now you could take a shortcut across the lake on the ice! I'm happy to hear that your weather is finally cooperating.

    Glad to hear you are enjoying the Spring rydes. The first ones of the year are great.

    RE: Lake Superior Circle Tour--a great and scenic ride. Did the ride once, but lived in Duluth MN, and Ashland WI, for years. The Lake was always accessible to us. Bring warm gear, when you get the off lake breezes, temps can drop 20+ degrees in a very short period of time. The scenery is to die for. Minnesota's North Shore, and the Canada segment cannot be beat.

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    My husband and I did a run from the Chicago burbs into Upper Peninsula last fall. So beautiful. The Munising area is just gorgeous. Absolutely worth it event though we got rained out for one afternoon. Many years ago we did a trip around in the car with our son. Would really love to be able to do a full circle but probably not in the cards for this year.

    Cool Superior

    Be sure to hit the Keweenaw Peninsula in Michigan on your Superior tour. Go all the way to Copper Harbor and take the Lac La Belle Road thru Bete Grise. It's the best! In fact, you'll pass right by my cottage. Have fun!
