A buddy of mine has been crowing about a 2lane up by Glennie that I should check out. Defininatly have to get away from Detroit to find a good road that wont beat you to death with our suspensions. :steering:

The Around the Lake path is fantastic on the eastern shoreline of Lake Michigan. :cheers:

I am thinking of doing the lake superior circle tour this summer sometime, and would love to get some vettes out there with me, whaddya think?

Re: Best Driving Roads In Michigan (Storz)
 

Hwy 119, Harbor Springs to Cross Village is excellent!

The Lake Superior circle tour sounds great, but I think you are talking about 2000 miles for the full loop. Maybe a weekend jaunt to the Petosky area?

I am down for a cruise anywhere, but I do think that taking like 4 or 5 days and doing the Lake Superior thing would be great, I have a buddy who did it in 3 days on a motorcycle so I know it could be done in a long weekend. Once the weather breaks I'll get some more info and post it again and see if there is any interest

Re: Best Driving Roads In Michigan (Storz)
 

I'm particularly fond of a couple key stretches:
I-75 from River Rouge to Taylor. :crazy:
I-94 from I-75 to Detroit Metro Airport. :rolleyes: :cuss

There's a good stretch out by Hell somewhere, I think ddecart can chime in on that.

:iagree: State Hwy. 31 north of Muskegon - beautiful, straight and long! :D

Re: Best Driving Roads In Michigan (Storz)
 

The problem with Michigan is that the most scenic roads are unpaved. I regularly drive the back roads between Howell and Chelsea and manage to stay on pavement the whole way. Lots of trees and lakes, plus when returning on North Territorial, you can get a glimpse of the U of M radio telescope.

:iagree: that would be :cool:

Route 12 starting in Chesterton,IN to St. Joseph, MI, then north on the Red Arrow. Two lanes, twisty, beautiful, and small town America :cheers: :cheers:

Re: Best Driving Roads In Michigan (Storz)
 

Yup 119 is it, woods on one side and a 200' cliff down to lake Michigan on the other. Turns so tight that 45 is as fast as I can go on the street bike, have not tried the Vette yet, maybe this year.. :seeya

:iagree:

I also like US12 (Michigan Ave.) from Ann Arbor going to Cement City, lots of twisties.... :cool:

Re: Best Driving Roads In Michigan (SpeedStyleSound)
 

There are lots of good roads out by Hell. There are several lakes out in that area, and with lakes come twisty roads. Not very populated out there, either so there are plenty of trees & scenery and little traffic. We did a color tour last fall that went from North Territorial & US 23, through Hell, out to Dansville and back up to Webberville. Nice drive.

Re: Best Driving Roads In Michigan (blktie8)
 

Yup. We definitely have to do that again. But before then, we might need to make another spring run to Hooters like we did last year. :yesnod:

US 131 between Cedar Springs and Cadillac

wide open divided highway....try and match the 131 that's the limit right?

Re: Best Driving Roads In Michigan (rozdesign)
 

:yesnod: I did some top speed runs in my 89 5.0 Mustang along that stretch :cheers:

Re: Best Driving Roads In Michigan (ddecart)
