A few of us went a year or two ago .. around all the lakes ... entered at the NY / CA boarder came back in .. I think in Duluth ..over to Niagra back to NC.

Stayed on the roadway all the way. Be ready for quick changes in weather. Watch out for Moose. I can ask my buddy who put the ride together the route for the gpx files .. not sure if he still has them or not.

My wife and I did the Superior Loop last August. We took 7 days and had a great time. Wife said she would do it again in a minute. Trying to decide where to go in 2017. Have been thinking about doing a loop around another one of the lakes.

Great advice Uncle Larry, H58 is a must ride.

Best Ride in Michigan (imo). I find it hard to ride the "Tunnel of Trees" after the experience. Don't forget to stop at Miner's Castle just East of Munising.
