Sorry coulnt tell you how the trip was i ended up going to brevort in the u.p and riding up there for a few days. But i can tell you that i hear its about 90 miles or so give or take from grayling up to bridge so round trip your looking at maybe 200 and if u do end up taking this trip let me know i may be interested in joining if u dont mind. I'am roughly 140 miles south of grayling and a day trip works good for me since i work my butt off 6 days a week
