Yeah I'm aware of that... but you have to truly know or search for them...
When in the UP it's more about being out with not allot of people. |

Still plenty of better-known curves, though... 116 between downtown Ludington and Ludington State Park, hugging the coast around the Leelanau Peninsula, 119 through the tunnel of trees... I remember the roads in and out of the Tahquamenon area to be pretty good, and there's good riding in the Keweenaw Peninsula, particularly around Copper Harbor. Writing about it makes me want to throw Michigan back into my route. I haven't ridden the U.P. in almost fifteen years. |

I'm biased because I'm a geologist, but I would bypass Montana and go straight from Sturgis to Yellowstone/Tetons. Try and book a cabin at Roosevelt Cabins http://www.usparklodging.com/yellows...gn=Yellowstone. Plus, you should see at least one National Park in Utah. I recommend Arches NP, then off to Cortez, CO and do a loop up to Telluride, Ouray, and down to Durango. Then ride to Denver and ship your bike home.

If you hit Amarillo on a weekend I can head up there for a meetup or if you drop down below Amarillo, you can stay at my place.
