newb from michigan
« on: September 27, 2014, 04:27:03 PM »
New here, just picked up a 91 kx500, I traded a 400 dollar ak47 for the bike, it runs great and I hope to fix it up this winter.  Can't wait, I've always wanted one.

nope, went to the u.p. for the first time last year.  My wife's family are all yoopers though.

I am originally from northern Wisconsin, 35 mi from Ironwood. Been missing that place trying to get the family to move. Beautiful country huh? So. Cal sucks for sledding!  :lol:

it is awesome, the area I live in is way overpopulated and nowhere to ride though, about 20 miles north of detroit.

Good trade.. Those AK's are getting expensive to feed.

 Lots of trails up here in the West Branch, Houghton Lk. area.

 Last Oct. we spent 2 weeks riding near Munising in da UP, lots of room to run.

I hear Houghton lake is great riding, maybe I'll have time next summer to check it out.

Check out Roscommon & Ogemaw counties on these maps. I've lived in Ogemaw Co. all my life and haven't been on all of the trails in the connecting counties.
