Lake Michigan
Tomorrow I'm leaving on a motorcycle trip. My plan (at this point) is to ride around Lake Michigan.
My wife will be going as well. She will be on her 650GS. With her going there will be very little gravel so I put on highway tires. My bike does not look right with them on.
We will be gone between 7 and 10 days.
If you have an interest you can follow us on my spot. http://share.findmespot.com/shared/face ... jE7BvI9uVB

Re: Lake Michigan
It was a very good trip. We will be going back to Mackinac Island for a few day and I'm going to go back to the UP for some dual sport riding. I don't know when but I know I'm going.
