I sure have been enjoying your forum, lots of very good info! I have been ride bikes for years but have it up a few years ago because of all the idiots on the road these days. I now have ATV’s and utv’s and put a lot of miles on them each year, where I live there are thousands of miles of logging trails and dedicated atv-utv-and motorcycle trails. I now have the desire to get back into bikes again to take advantage of the many single tracked motorcycle trails we have from my back door. After reading your forum and watching many videos I decided to start looking for a ct125 trail, after many calls I found one 21/2 hours from home, delivery later April. Thank you all for the great information on your forum!

Welcome. My wife is originally from MI and I keep telling her we should move to the UP. I've never been there but I've heard good things.

Welcome from the LP, but I love spending time in the up. A friend has a great camp between Seney and Lake Superior. Haven't been there in too many years. Spent the summer of 73 at Clear Lake south of Shingleton.

Great areas I know them well, I used to have a camp near Clear lake. So many trails both marked and unmarked, we love it up here! What area in the lower do you live?

My local dealer has two $4800 and change. Too far for you probably but they are out there. They started with three.

The Sunset Coast, across the lake from Chicago. About 30 miles north of Indiana.

I have done some work at the Palisades Nuclear Plant years ago, yes nice sunsets.

Palisades is about a 20 minute drive north of me. They shut down and closed the plant down during the pandemic . About a month before the shutdown Big Gretch begged them to keep it open. Apparently she didn't understand you just don't stop something like that on the spur of the moment. Holtec bought Palisades and are now seeking permission to recommission the plant. In December 2023, Holtec announced that it intended to build the first two SMR-300 small modular reactors at Palasades by mid-2030. Holtec is getting $billion in .gov money, and has yet to receive permission to reverse the decommissioning process and restart. I've been told recently by a person involved, that Holtec is hiring hundred.
