I was hoping to make a run up north this weekend for the first ride of the year but right now the weather is calling for rain but it's still early in the week.
(I dont even think any other people ride offroad in michigan :roll: )

I think most people around here that have china bikes just use them to patrol the roads for tossed cans for the .10 cent refund.

Or maybe they sold the metal from their china bike for scrap to put food on the table. (michigan-the one state recession)

We ride in Trenton, Mi. all the time. If anyone has a moped or anything close, lets organize a ride this summer. Maybe ride from coffee shop to coffee shop or?
My wife and I have rode with a couple groups and it is great fun. The more people the better. Anyone up for a ride this summer?

We race MX, AMA or MRA. We have a couple practice tracks to ride on as well. We rage mopeds around when not at a track. If you go riding or need some company, let us know

Hmm trenton, thats on the other side of the metro area (close) it's doable.
I keep thinking of that movie "the warriors" and making it back home thru the city.

I dont have a moped or scooter I do have a motorized bicycle and we have our dualsport bikes.

In MI but in the lonely north

I am up in Marquette and I would love to have any one in the area to do any sort of ride with.

I dont know the area all that well but I have been learning more since i bought the bike.

How far are you willing to drive/ride to meet up.

have you been to this site yet.
Michigan ORV maps
Map 2 looks interesting but I cant honestly say when I could make it to the U.P. and to make it to these trails would take us ohh about 7 hours I'm guessing.

This appears to be the parking National geographic SAT map of MI.ORV map 2-fun to play with
This is a Michigan ORV map.(scanned - sorry)


Map 21 near cheboygan (black lake) would be possible at some time though.Black lake trails
This area is just east of the bridge at the northern edge of the L.P. and I remember it as a hilly, very fun and challenging area but that was years ago.They probably have the hills off limits now because of erosion :roll: .

SAT map of black lake trails PARKING area (just because I can)
