Title: 5th Annual BBQ- June 21, 2025
Post by: CLAY on January 12, 2014, 06:20:42 PM
I figured I'd announce it here first.  Save the date!  We usually start around noon or 1 or so. Plenty of room to camp at night (if you choose to stay), a firepit, and a pool to enjoy.  :bigok:  See you then!



Plenty of room to camp out back.   :thumbsup:

He was smoking some meat.

I may be an eat and run attendee - Wife's annual girl's weekend is that weekend, and while my daughter is at camp, son is only 10 and he's not allowed to ride with me. I may have coverage until 6pm CST, but with no traffic it's at least 3 hours - that's speeding with no traffic slabbing the entire way, meaning I'd have to leave by 3pm EST to be safe.

Worst case scenario, if I can't find coverage, maybe I'll drive up and bring him along. He loves BBQ...

Seriously. Wife hates bikes, but has dealt with me having no less than two in the garage for years, track days, etc. Not a veto I can overrule. Means more to her than me (which is why I have bikes at all) so we'll address that one over time.

I'd just drive if'n I were you. It's all about the food and camaraderie anyway. It's not like you'd be missing any good riding roads.

looks like it will work out, but if you take the back roads, it's not a bad ride. 12 to Red Arrow to Blue Star, then meander east on something at some point...

That's the only real riding I get besides track days (too few) or commuting (boring and/or slab).

Pro-tip.

At Thanksgiving, or perhaps Christmas, Stand up as if you are going to make a toast . . . and say:

"Ehem! Thank you for your attention. I would like to request that all future family weddings, christenings, birthday celebrations, funerals, graduations, and other family oriented command performances take place between 1 Novermber and the end of March.

Exceptions for emergencies can extend that time until mid-April.

Thank you for your support."

Go ahead, give this a try!

From last year, but still, it was July:

"The Mackinac Bridge Authority tells 9&10 News the Bridge has been reopened.

It was shut down Thursday night after a semi truck was tipped over by strong winds.

The semi blew over on the northbound side of the bridge.

Strong winds blew through the Straits Area at more than 65 miles per hour."

If the weather turns crappy, make sure the bridge is open.  :thumbsup:

It’s easy to see why we’re such a popular Michigan travel destination. Because no automobiles are allowed on the island, you’ll feel like you’ve been swept back in time.

Proving yet again that CLAY's a crazy dude.

Reminds me of my granny, who is terrified of bridges.  She's got a good reason for it, though.  Whenever my great-grandfather would take her over the Eads Bridge in St. Louis, he'd slow down in the middle of it and let her know it was a good spot to drop her off.

http://www.mackinacisland.org/getting-here/ (http://www.mackinacisland.org/getting-here/)


Getting Here
 
Interstate I-75 brings you to the ferry docks of both Mackinaw City (Lower Peninsula) and St. Ignace (Upper Peninsula). Access to the island can be made from both of these cities. The exits are clearly marked for several miles.
 
All season long, Mackinac Island is serviced from both of these cities by three ferry companies: Arnold Transit, Shepler’s Ferry, and Star Line Ferry. Each has their own fleet of high speed ferries that can take passengers from port to island in less than half an hour.
 
Pellston Airport is serviced by Delta Airlines and is approximately fifteen miles from the island. Mackinaw Shuttle Services and Wolverine Stages are located in the main terminal of the airport to provide ground transportation to the ferries headed towards the island.  Additionally, Great Lakes Air is a full service, affordable passenger and freight charter service that offers a 7 minute flight from St. Ignace to Mackinac Island.

No, family road trip from CHicago. If I recall correctly, there are these places they make fudge right in front of you on giant white marble slabs, sliding the chocolate back and forth. Had pink signs I believe, and even tho the island was small there were like, 4 or 5 shops that sold it? Maybe just the one where they made it...  Anyway, that's what I remember. Don't remember the horse poop, although I would expect to...

OK, going to Mackinac island end of June (in cage with wife) - my understanding is that no cars are allowed on the island?

Truth.  You can get all places around town by walking, and everywhere else via bike or horse and driver.  It's a great place and is like a step back in time.   :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

As soon as it swiveled down to look through the grating for a good 10 count, I knew it wasn't a GoPro.  I figured the tracking was too straight and you'd have been over the median by then.  :crazy:

On the menu will be various types of BBQ (I leave that up to the master), usually potato salad of some variety, some rolls, pop/soda (depending on where you come from), water, and lemonade.

There will be a can for donations.   :bigok:

Planning on leaving early,  at least by 7am, which if I take the back routes gets me to around South Haven in around 2.5 to 3 hours, less if I slab until after Gary Indiana for the few curves on 12 on the Dunes highway and just before Michigan City...

Likely leaving. Northbrook around 7am tomorrow morning. Was posting with Stripes about possibly picking him up on the way but I hear he's thinking about quitting riding...   8).  (Didn't hear from him)

Would gladly meet up on the way around the lake. My thought is either LSD to 41 to 12 to Red Arrow to Blue Star, or skyway until after Gary, then 12, etc.

I'm enjoying a Perrin black lager and a big sandwich while BMW Grand Rapids puts on fresh rubber and some new oil.
Looking forward to some fresh cat tomorrow.

The last 4500 miles have been dry (at least in the daytime). I had nothing to do with this.

Gotta say, navigating an unfamiliar city on Friday afternoon in the rain on new tires was something the word 'fun' does not adequately describe. :willy:

CLAY, it was an honor to sleep in a puddle in your field. I hope to do so again one day.

Dan, someday I'd love to ride your loop to South Haven. I didn't get done with work as early as I had hoped or told you that I was going to on Saturday. Contrary to what some people think, I don't force my employees to work weekends, it is voluntary. All of my employees had plans on Saturday but 1.

More than half of the people on this forum have met me at a rally or regional lunch meet. I've spoken to you on the phone more than twice, John. What else do you need? Faith. Have faith. I will return. You can call it the 2nd coming of Stripes. Ride up to my wedding in Maine on July 25th if you'd like. It will be here:

Dan, someday I'd love to ride your loop to South Haven. I didn't get done with work as early as I had hoped or told you that I was going to on Saturday. Contrary to what some people think, I don't force my employees to work weekends, it is voluntary. All of my employees had plans on Saturday but 1.

I rode over five thousand miles in total on my way to Grand Rapids in hopes of meeting Stripes in person. I'm just a little disappointed.  :-[

The last 15 miles or so of US41 are possibly the perfect motorcycle road if you subscribe to the 'pace' method. I'm pretty sure I was in third gear all the way & never touched the brakes just rolled the throttle like a rheostat. I want to move to Copper Harbor and get a job in one of the other towns along the peninsula just so I can ride in and out of C.H. twice a day every day. I has been a long time since I rode such buttery smooth pavement that clung so tenaciously to the nap of the earth. I had a moto-chubby almost the whole time.

I am currently in Copper Harbor. I left Head's place about half an hour ago half in the bag on his awesome brew. :beerchug:

That spectacular bit of road was US41. The last fifteen-ish miles into C.H. were positively transcendent. I'd guess the asphalt was laid last year because it's fully cured and seasoned but not yet deteriorating. Mmm...MotoNirvana. :drool:
