Has this ride been done before? I'll be moving to DePere, WI by end of this week and if I can get organized soon enough and things fall into place I might try to join you. It would be a 225 mile ride getting there but if the weather is good that's not an issue.

TP, looks like you're about the same distance from Ironwood as I. If things get settled in enough and I'm physically up to it I want to try and make it. I'll be starting treatment for prostate cancer soon as I get up there and don't know how I'll feel after a month of radiation and other stuff.

We rode up to Copper Harbor after Gig’s UP ride. That 40 mile ride up the coast and back down thru the twisties was great. German restaurant had good food and great German beer on tap, but did not open until 3. Hotel rooms up there were small and expensive.
