Putting together a connection of routs in Northern Lower Michigan.

Did a trial run on the first yesterday. Starting with Tin Cup Springs. 18 mile loop.

It was gorgeous, but cloudy and sprinkled a few times. Overall love the Bilsteins on the truck. The trail was good. Mix of hardpack, sand and some mud.

The rest of the full route will include
Little Manistee Route - 43 miles
Lincoln Hills Route - 22 miles
North Missaukee Route - 55 Miles

Then option to Kalkaska Route headed north - 72 miles
Followed by Fredric Route - 21 Miles

Or west Higgins Route - 34 miles
Followed by Roscommon - 9 miles
To St Helen Route - 42 miles
To Denton Creek - 40 miles


Planning to run each section on its own before starting out and spending a week doing the full trip! I will create a full Route with connectors, staying dirt as much as possible. Should be a good one for next fall week long color tour.

I am heading to Michigan from Indiana, will be coming up Thursday the 8th. Not sure where we are going yet, we will be Van/moto camping with dual sports. Are these routes good for moto travel?

Sure are. I would look at the full MCCCT. You can find it here with maps. Great rides. I have done the MCCCT before in full. Took a few days and was well worth it.

Thanks for posting this up @docster . Have you had a chance to ride any more of these routes? If so, any info to share that may be useful? The Mrs and I plan to be up near Petosky and Kalkaska quite a bit this summer/fall and I would love to go see what I can on these routes.
