I just spoke with Ron on the phone. They made some new friends at the Gay bar (man anything to do with that town sounds horrible) who directed them to a guy to fix the radiator. They spent the night at a campground on the beach and will hopefully have the fixed radiator ready to go here shortly and can get it back and installed and get on the road home. Probably will be a late night for those guys. He mentioned that he'll post the story of the whole ordeal.

I've tried the slide show and the video and both worked.

Just want to add what a great job Kristian and Jason did. A great blend of trails, challenges and sites to see. Thanks for putting the trip together and the awesome job you guys did.

Hope you consider trips in the future. There are obviously a lot of areas left to see in the UP.

Will post pics asap.

One of my favorite pictures is of the stone beach track and Lake Superior. Bravo.

Here's my addition to the pics.

From start to finish, and from the rear of the pack.

These pictures are rather large, and you can click on the picture in the frame to enlarge it. It gives options x2, x3, etc. "O" is Original, and largest.

No restrictions, you should all be able to save any that you like.

Kristian and Jason did a stellar job. I believe their hard work paid off.

Hope you all enjoy the pics as much as Myra and I enjoyed taking them:

Tom, wow, those shots are amazing, thanks for sharing. The pics with water in them are so vivid that they almost look fake. This one is great too, looks like those drum brakes worked just fine coming down Mt Houghton, hahaha
