Cool.

We are joining in Howard City. Just 2 of us so far.

Trying to get my wife to ride with me, but she is scared to death of crossing the bridge even in a car, so she is terrified about crossing on the bike.

We have a room for Saturday night at the Quality Inn in St. Ignace.

WE DID THE RIDE ABOUT 8 YEARS AGO. A GROUP OF US FROM EASTERN WISCONSIN (32 GOLDWINGS) TOOK THE SS BADGER ACROSS ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND DID THE RIDE. WE RODE HWY 2 BACK TO 141, TO I43 HOME AFTER THE EVENT.
GREAT TIME WAS HAD BY ALL.

Most memorable part of the trip

Riding in the middle of the pack of a couple thousand bikes down M-46 at about 1 AM.

And what should be standing in the middle of the road to greet us??

A group of about 5-6 guys mooning the whole row of bikes.


I laughed for miles..........
