    Northern Wisconsin or UP of Michigan

    Just wondering if anyone is planning on some rides or get togethers in 2022 in these areas. I’m located near Green Bay, former Yooper. I know last September there was a ride/ rally near Wakefield. I just don’t see any activity being talked up for 2022. Maybe too early? But I’d be happy to just know if there are any members in the area that would even enjoy a day ride together now and then.

    You might want to keep an eye on Big Snow Resort in the UP up near Wakefield, MI. They are planning a number of motorcycle events, both off and on road for the summer. I've never been to the resort, but a number of guys from our club have and they say its great and the events have been exceptional. I have ridden some of the roads around the area and they were worth the trip. The web page still shows events from 2021 but I know they are planning the calendar for 2022.

    Thank you

    Thanks, Nut. I am aware of those events. But was hoping for something more like a 2 or 3 day ride/ Campout. Or if some were thinking of some day rides around NE Wisconsin. Nothing real big, just some riding, maybe a little camping.

    You might check out this group also. I know they are mostly from Chicago area but travel up north for trips.

    Camping in Grand Marais, MN

    There is a nice city campground in Grand Marais, and of course, Betty's Pies is on the way in Two Harbors! Nice day ride out, camp, and back. You can hit Riderwarehouse as well. Take a look at the BMWST.com site for a group outing in the Dells.

    Thanks

    Thank you, Scout. I have camped at that campground and it is very nice. Back in 2011, I did exactly as you describe. I rode up to Grand Marais from Green Bay Area, camped overnight and rode home the next day. I rode H58 both directions to enjoy its curves. Nice ride.
