Default Saturday destination

Does anyone know if there any rallys or something to go to this Saturday. My friends and I want to go somewhere but we are having a difficult time with figuring out where to go. Nothing posted on cycle fish.
Forgot to mention, somewhere in SW Michigan. Coming from Detroit area.

We have decided to do the covered bridges in OHIO. If anyone from the Detroit metro area wants to join us the more the merrier.

sorry i missed it, Bandit, sounds like you ride....i went out with a group of guys on Saturday, but it was just pure bullshit.....some guys like to ride, some guys like to stand around and play grab ***....started at 9, I left the group at 1:30....we'd put in about 50 miles in that 4-1/2 hours....the big highlight was watching a flat assed chick in a bathing suit wash bikes at an HD dealership

I put out the word for a metro detroit roll call on belle isle on the 7th of august, hope you can make it, bring your buds.....all are welcome

Instead of going to Ohio we stayed in Michigan and did a loop through central part of the state. We rode about 250 miles. Had a good time and checked out a few of the bridges we have here.

Detroit downtown area is pretty cool, Greektown is good, Campus Martius, Belle Isle, the main arteries I-75, Woodward, Jefferson, Gratiot....all pretty safe....there are some places to avoid though

I haven't been to Belle Isle since they started setting up for the grand prix. They should be done cleaning up by now.

I was just poking fun about the Chicago comment.
