    as a group we go on a trip like this every year on memorial day weekend, we normally go south but being tired of the same ol' thing we decided to try out michigan, it was about what i expected, almost zero mud/water and about 98% sand, as usual we always have a good time ridin together, had one flat (me) picked up a drill bit somewhere :rolleyes: and my buddies grizzly 700's rear brakes somehow got messed up (newer pads) and the right rear literally caught on fire, it was pretty crazy, took 3 bottles of water to put it out, here are a just a few pics, we ended up doing 170mi in 3 days, but we stop.....alot lol

    i was on the red 420 IRS rancher

    this flag survived the whole trip right where it is, i'm just gonna leave it on there till it falls off

    no one got seriously hurt and all machines came back in one piece for the most part, so i'll chalk it up as a good trip!

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Nice trip and pictures! I'm glad to see you and your passenger wearing helmets, gloves, and appropriate clothing. Definately not quadtards!

    When you've headed South, ever been to Durhamtown in Georgia?

    thanks, we stayed in harrison MI, we dont usually go that far south on our trips usually in the area of WV/KY/TN, i think we're gonna try to hit TN next year, and yeah all riders/passengers always wear the apropriate riding gear, esp helmets, we never ride without them

    Your flag is mounted backwards. And please don't leave it in the dirt when it falls off. Where in Michigan did you guys go?
