If you come up here you best bring a snowmobile.

That's where I'm heading! Ft Lauderdale Eagle Rider is closed on Mondays, so we're picking the bikes up in Miami. It's going to be awesome! Temps here have been averaging 20° below normal. :\

Northern Michigan is a nice winter destination. There are no lines at our restaurants and traffic is light. If you're on a Black Street Glide, you'll be noticed and will have no issue with which bike is yours. If you like wearing a mask of some sort when riding you'll fit right in because many of the older folks ward off the cold temps the same way. Call ahead because the north pretty much closes down in the winter and there aren't a lot of motels open away from the "big cities".
