Ninjette.org rally North Central Thread
Alright following Matt's lead, here's a thread for the North Central peeps. Some come on you Illini and Hoosiers and Wolverines and Badgers Hawkeyes and ...
I suggested Chicago area in the other thread. It's probably a 2 hour ride to some good twisties from there. Someone else said Indianapolis. Actually not a bad idea because there are supposedly some nice twisties South of Indy. Some come on you guys, throw in some ideas, suggest some dates, and let's get this thing going! |

There are indeed some decent roads south of Indy in Brown County. However, they're more than an hour from there. I feel like Indy would be better than Chicago, but I'm equidistant from both, so it doesn't make much difference to me.
Copied from the other thread: I don't know of any great spots, but there are some nice beaches in the south west of MI. Definitely room for cookouts, camping, and some nice sunset shots! The roads in the area are pretty good back in the woods, but I can't think of anything spectacular. http://www.michigandnr.com/ParksandT...=504&type=SPRK

First things first: BUMP!!! haha ok, got that out of my system.
Somewhat bad news: My childhood home was sold and therefore is unavailble for the meet that we have done nothing about haha.So, I'm going to have to retract my offer from before, but I still think that state park would be a good place for the meet.

I've been awol for awhile because my in-laws are in town. They're gonna be here till June 14th so I won't be able to plan or join in any ride until then. But looks like interest is pretty low anyway. So hopefully someone else will pick it up. Otherwise I'll try to jump back in mid-June.
