Default Southeastern Mi. Polar bear ride
For those of you who plan to ride through the winter, Ithought I'd put out a feeler here to see if anyone would be interested in gathering for a winter ride in Southeastern Mi. I'm suggesting a starting pointsomewhere around the Telegraph and I-94 area and then riding for a few miles from there. I could work out exact details if enough interest is generated. It would include stops along the way for coffee and warmth, to be sure. If the weather were not cooperative on the day chosen, an alternative could also bepicked. Lets say, a weekend day in Janurary. Any brave soulsinterested?Chime in on this post or, PM me .

Larry,

Yes, but if the salt is bad, no.

Dragonsbreath:What a cool idea to pick that day for your group. That's really bringing in the new year.
So far, salt permitting, we have one black fly and hkshooter joining in..
