Sooooooooooo
Start in Tecumseh and then come to Pinckney , 35 miles or expand the ride to 100 Then return to Tecumseh if you wish ( To camp at Shankkoles 6 acres

Yeah lots of good rides around Hell area plus I would love to learn my way around that area a little better. Anyone plan on going to the Gilmore Museum Vintage bike show? Kalamazoo, where I live, is pretty close to that. I would be glad to show anyone around the area. The Gilmore museum is situated in some the best riding roads in the state. Don't believe me? Bring your bike and lets ride!

I am really up for where ever when ever. Setting a date months in advance often does not work so good in MI. You are basically guaranteeing the weather will be bad! lol

I was thinking something similar. I like the idea of working it around a swap meet or vintage show like Sean mentions

I don't get on here as much as I use to and so glad to see this. I'm in! I live in Canton and use to ride a lot around Tecumseh/Pinckney area. The last time I went on a vintage Kaw ride was many years ago with a group from this site. It would be fun to get out and show off the bikes!

Happy to have another on board for the idea.

I've been thinking about this every few days still, it's just a bit hard to make sure nobody is left out - personally, I like the Tecumseh-Pinckney-Tecumseh plan that SFLTD proposed, it's a pretty decent length without being too much saddle time. I'd love more input from anyone that's on the fence, though.

I am down to ride where ever. I've ridden all the areas that's been talked about. I'll keep checking back here to check on progress. My bike is mostly minty fresh, but doing all new suspension this spring so it will be about as nice as it's ever been since I owned it.

Uh oh!  I never should have said anything about my bike looking good, I forgot about who I was talking to.  It's nice for this old redneck and I do get compliments on it, but it's no show bike for sure!  I guess I better get to polishing!

No need to worry, mine will make yours look about 30 years fresher.
