BACKWARDS TRIP TO U.S.


FINNDIAN

Recommended Posts

Well since we're already in Wawa, we have to go far away to ride, we would like to see if riding in michigan is as bad as everyone says so, the end of feb we plan to ride south to thessalon, then across the ice to michigan, and then head west towards wisconsin, we will ride for probably 4 days, any suggestions would be appreciated.

RIDE MIDWEEK!

If you are looking to do this over a weekend, I would pass. The UP is a great place to ride, but the weekend Blair Morgans will be in full force tearing up the trails. You will notice a difference in signing (much better than in Ontario) and you will be riding more town to town. If you can get good conditions, it is a nice trip, but your rolling the dice.

Best suggestion would be to stay in WAWA.

gord, make sure to wear your tek vests, and if you have them use helmet communicators to warn the others in the group of riders and dangers. i know you guys cant fathom this but in some cases you are going to se 100-300 sleds in a day. avoid grand marais michigan on saturdays if at all possible. sometimes the line to wait for gas will be hours long. and when they run out, you sit and wait for another truck to fill up the station. (only one in town).

you guys have us beat for trails. snow, conditions, and traffic. i wouldnt waste my time up in the U.P after riding where you live. that is why we dont ride in michigan anylonger. way to many heros on the trails.

if you still feel you must come check it out, please ride safe, and be very careful. the other guy will not be looking out for you. enjoy the dirt, you'll be able to see it through the trail LOL! ski

We rode over to Escanaba area from St Ignace 2-2-08. Fairly light traffic for a weekend, superbowl weekend, fuel prices and the economy all probably took their toll. More and more clubs in the UP are taking more pride in their grooming. If it wasn't groomed Saturday afternoon it was Sunday morning. Not to say you won't hit a bad streach but you can ride out of it in 20 miles or so. Seney, St Ignace, Grand Marais all do a great job. Let me know if I can point you in the right direction for a good route?
