Grand Haven to Crystal Mountain Resort

Scenic ride along Lake Michigan from Grand Haven, MI to Crystal Mountain Resort. You can make it even nicer if you keep following M-22 north of Onekema. It will take longer but if you are not pressed for time it is well worth it. M-22 is one of the most beautiful motorbiking roads in Michigan.

Davisburg Loop : Springfield Township

Nice Country trip for the people in the city. Takes you through Clarkston and Davisburg with a couple options for different routes. This is fairly 'hilly' for Southeast Michigan. Not many notable places to stop, but downtown Clarkston is home to both the Woodshop and Union. Both made world famous by the mac & cheese and Kid Rock, you may even get the opportunity to see him.

Lakeville Lake Run : Leonard - Rochester

Nice curves and views of the water. Stop at the corner of Rochester Rd and Rochester Rd (yes, Rochester and Rochester) for a beer on the rooftop overlooking Lakeville Lake. Join this ride with Orion Rd and it is a good mix for a quick ride, just watch out for rush hour coming out of Downtown Rochester.

C58 : Wolverine to Petosky

Rolling hills, very nice corners especially coming into Petosky where there is a long sweeping S curve that gains in altitude. Nice approach if you plan on riding 119 - tunnel of trees.

Around the Thumb

- This is just a very pleasant trip around the Thumb of Michigan.

- Starting at Walmart in Caro (good parking lot to meet in), head West on M-81, turn South on M-24, and follow that down to M-46. Turn East on M-46 and continue on until Port Sanilac, MI. Then, turn North on M-25, and follow that all the way around the Thumb until Unionville, MI. There, M-25 turns West, but the road that continues South becomes M-24, which leads right back into Caro, MI.

- Overall, it's about 160 miles, and takes about 3.5 hours with no stops, but there are plenty of very nice places to stop for scenic pictures and great food along the way. It's a simple ride with minimal hazards, and not much for hills and curves, but the scenery is beautiful, especially as the road rides along the edge of Lake Huron. There's also plenty of lodging along the way, if needed. This is a great ride in the summer, with plenty of beaches to stop at, and a great color tour in the fall when the leaves begin to change.

Tunnel Of Trees 119

Here's a gorgeous route to hit with a cruiser or sport bike. Twenty two miles of tight corners with beautiful scenery. on the route keep an eye out for a little cabin that serves great coffee and is a very cool antique shop. BE VERY CAREFUL OF SAND ON THE ROAD and be extremely careful of other vehicles as it is very tight

hwy 32/55

some good sweepers and small hills on 32, slipping between several lakes along the way. straightening out for a while as you pass by argonne and take 55 south along the wolf river. been a favorite of mine for a while, not quite twisties but some good tight turns with plenty of straights and sweepers in between. solid forest and river alongside, beautiful in fall. plenty of stops for a lazy raft/tube ride down the wolf to relax and stretch out. shawano at the south end and eagle river at north. very rewarding route through northwoods wisconsin.
