Anyone else taking a Memorial Weekend Spyder Trip???

I'm going to Minnesota to visit one of my brothers - taking the long way through the Upper Peninsula--- about 800 miles to where I'm going. Will take the 'shorter' route on my way home--- which is only 600 miles.

Leaving Friday afternoon--- coming back Monday.

Supposed to be GREAT weather!:thumbup:

I wish I had a trip planned. Enjoy going through MN. The weather is supposed to be beautiful, except probably humid (we've been having a lot of that lately).
 
Yes I am taking a one day trip up to Croton Hardy dam,up near muskegon,MI staying up there for one day and coming back that evening,should be a fun trip:2thumbs: they also have hiking trails up there too so I will be walking those too,and they have a nice bar & grill that overlooks the dam. Mini trip about 205 miles one way. Looking forward to getting away for a day.
 
Hey there Fly,, where at in Minnesota? I will be in Pipestone Minnesota over memorial day,, its right on the SW corner of the state, South Dakota and Iowa Border lines... Along with Pipestone I will also be in Spirit Lake Iowa and Okaboji Iowa...

I'm registered for the WestCoastThunder run in Riverside, CA. Over 7000 bikes last year going to the National Cemetery. My mom and pop are buried there. This year will include a 2nd parade splitting from the first to the Soboba Casino.
 
:2thumbs:We are going from Mississauga to Orillia on Friday to see my sister. On Saturday we are going on the Ride For Dad after a BBQ at my sisters and then home on Sunday. In all about 550 Kms. The weather look good.
 
We are waiting until Friday. Heading to Eastern Colorado to see my mother-in-law. Found out yesterday there is a bike rally in town that Sunday that happens once a year in a town with a population of 1700, maybe. There is a motorcycle god! From there we head west to Denver and meet my brother-in-law for lunch and then move on to Black Hawk for a little casino recreation and meet up with my wife's sister and her husband. Then back to Texas. This is somewhere in the neighborhood of 1800 miles. More if I can convince my wife to take the senic route through the mountains coming home. This is by far the most we have ridden for any trip. I guess we will get home, uhm....., when we do, I guess.

Rochester MN is where I'll be for sat night... a little over an hour southeast of the twin cities.
 
We are going to the Everglades and ride the Tamiami Trail across the state and ride on an air boat into the Everglades for the first time.:yes:
 
No road trip here, too many kids with too many baseball games. But the Spyder is always a home run at the fields. Stay Save to all those taking a road trip and God Bless and thank you to all those men and women that make it possible for us to ride free!!!!

You should be passing through my neck of the woods. I was just up through Muskegon last weekend. Beautiful area up there along the big lake. Enjoy and ryde safe.
 
The RS is still in the shop :gaah:, but we brought the RT home yesterday. The weather looks great for the weekend so we'll for sure get out for a ryde, probably our fav canyon ryde to the coast.

Have a great weekend & safe ryding everyone!!!

I'd love to ride the U P on my Spyder. I go UP there all the time snowmobiling and fishing, but have not been UP with the Spyder, not yet anyway. I love parts of highway 2 on Lake MI, and I'd like to cruise the Keweenaw and other parts of the Superior shore line. Enjoy all the great scenery and have a great weekend.
 
Monday we are riding with a bunch of Hubby's friends to Bellville for lunch, then to parts unknown. Should be a hoot!
 
Packing the bags and heading for parts unknown. "Hey, that looks like a good road"...we'll see where I end up...though I know it will be somewhere in the northern part of lower Michigan. Beautiful weather, beautiful scenery.

No plans. No destination. No problems! :thumbup:

I've had a lot of fun doing this in the past and met some pretty interesting people in the process.

Have a great Memorial Day weekend everyone! :yes:
