    With there being possibly 20 plus cars envolved here, I think it could be very cool for all of us to be able to park at a reserved location for one of our parking lot get-togethers?

      That would probably be very tough down on Woodward. Those spaces aren't readily available and the ones that are, are expensive. We could definitely do that at the hotel though.

        Sorry Guys and Gals,
        I found this by Accident, looking for 2023 Power Tour Dates and Cities.........
        It cued up this additional site address.....

        I ran around the lake in 2021, there's a post of our adventures
        Some where on the BS site. You can use it for Ideas,
        Like going to : Spread Eagle, then Paradise, and Thru Hell
        On the way to Detroit.

        Just an idea, catch the Badger Ferry Across, and Run thru Wisconsin, Over the Bridge, and you would not have to Back Track.......

        Signing Out,
        Back to seeing what's up for Power Tour 2023

          boB and Donna, we like this idea of doing it in August because we always do Woodward and the mitten in July would not be doable. If August put us on your list.

            I think we're probably going to do it in August starting the weekend before Woodward. That way, we can do our trip and then anyone that wants to do Woodward, can. We're heading to the UP tomorrow to do a little research.

              We're in St. Ignace. This might be a good spot for us to home base. Click image for larger version

                          We went in to check it out. It even smelled old!

                              If an August cruise is very likely, a quick google check says Woodward would be the weekend of 19-20 August 2023?
                              Would everyone gather/meet in St. Ignace the weekend before? Do a few day trips and then head south for Woodward to arrive on the 18th or 19th?
                              Trying to get a grasp on what to expect for planning purposes.
                              Oh, and a quick p.s. ~ might want to change the thread date to August 2023
