Weekend ride to the Breezy Point area
« on: March 08, 2014, 06:42:25 PM »
Trip is canceled - may reschedule with commitment from riders.

Just testing the water to see if anyone would be interested in going up to the Whitefish Chain of Lakes / Breezy Point are for a weekend of riding.  I may be able to make Star Days again this year, so a weekend in July would work for me.  If another weekend would work, I can move it to the weekend before or after Star Days for those of us who aren't going.

Here is a possible location if it is available, Black Pine Resort:

Here is a possible route up there:

It's still a tentative posting.  We have to see some interest for it to solidify.  Also, the best places to stay are already filling up.

One last request to see if there is any interest in going north for a weekend, otherwise I'll drop it from the calendar.  I don't know if there will be any group locations available this late in the season for reservations, but I'll look if there is interest.

With leaving for Star Days the next week I will need to pass on this. It would make a very nice fall trip.

We'd be interested - in July, or for a Fall trip (October, maybe?).

At this time, I'm going to cancel this trip.  If we can discuss this again at one of the meetings and get some firm commitments from some riders, I'll try to book in August or September.  Debbie and I spent a week at Breezy Point the first week of June and had a good time except for the few days of rain.  It was the first time I used my trailer for the purpose I bought if for.  Kind of fun to pull into the golf course on our bikes and go golfing.

The roads around the lakes are awesome, wide, smooth and twisty.  We have to do this sometime. . .
