In my young, dumb, and dreamy days I wrote a business plan for a Michigan motorcycle touring company. I compiled some pretty excellent routes through both peninsulas and damned if I can find my old notes now. Lots of twisties hidden in the trees and along the water revealed through simple exploration; some of the roads were not visible on my paper maps.

Still plenty of better-known curves, though... 116 between downtown Ludington and Ludington State Park, hugging the coast around the Leelanau Peninsula, 119 through the tunnel of trees... I remember the roads in and out of the Tahquamenon area to be pretty good, and there's good riding in the Keweenaw Peninsula, particularly around Copper Harbor.

Writing about it makes me want to throw Michigan back into my route. I haven't ridden the U.P. in almost fifteen years.
