Dean.....when and where for the MI event? I'm in Grand Rapids. Thanks to all for the comments. Good bunch here.
There was no "defined" R-t-E schedule in the past, but that may change with the coming year. Usually it was on the 3rd wknd of the month, starting in April & alternating on saturday & Sunday. During the last year or two, it's been hit-n-miss at best... One of the recurring events that quite a few west-side riders have been attending is the annual Stockbridge, Mi "All Brands" day in mid-Sept....
- We have been to the Clifford Lake Inn in Stanton a couple of times & IIRC, we had a gathering & ride from the Common Ground "Biker Church" on Fulton St. with the ride taking in the sights around Gun Lake about 2-3 times , but I won't say who the ride leader was
- Deep fried hot-dogs were consumed at the Salty Dog in Jonesville
- a great turkey dinner was enjoyed at "Turkeyville" in Marshall
- Back in '05, we had a "Sunrise-to-Sunset" ride, watching the sunrise thru a break in cloud cover at the Port Austin pier, then riding thru a nasty thunderstorm which lasted a good 1.5 hrs., made our way over to Teecro's home near St.Joe , where we feasted on good bbq. Come to think of it, we never did head over to the big lake to see the sunset, about 3 miles away, due to serious cloud cover...
- The Irish Hills area has also been the basis for more than a couple of R-t-E's as well
- I've also been known to host a few events into the abyss south of us also known as Ohio
Just keep tabs on all both of the Concours Forums for last-minute gatherings...
ALSO, please feel free to host an event. Drop the new AAD, Stan Visser(aka: Stasch) a note & post it up here, stating; What, Where, When, & What Time...... by the way, does Rosies Diner in Rockford have group seating, wink, wink, nudge, nudge???
