Will be in Bruce Crossing this weekend with a few friends, hoping to ride to Houghton or Calumet and back on Saturday. Can anyone tell me how many miles this would be round trip? 200 or so? Any suggestions for the best route to take?
Also I am trying to decide between riding a yamaha 4 stroke or an older triple, any insight on the trails up there (i.e. tight corner to corner riding, trail is a couple sleds wide similar to North Wis......or wider trail highway riding, 4-5 sled wide, similar to North Shore Trail, or railroad grade). I hate the heavy 4 stroke in real tight trails but wider trails without a million tight corners are great on the 4 stroke. I don't want to worry about braking down on the older triple but I don't want to be pushing that bus around tight trails all day either.
Sorry for the rant, I appreciate any insight.
