Trace, I think that is a great course....and glad you're still including Bay Harbor. You got a boat yet or will you be thumbin' a ride? Remember, I'm Czech too with a little bit of Russian mixed in.

Boats on order!!!

Had a buddy do the distances: Boyne City 2 Northport 2 Elk back 2 Char 4 lunch!! 90ish miles

After lunch, Char 2 Harbor Springs 2 bay Harbor!!! back 2 BC 48ish miles

so as I have said, folks can gas up in Char at lunch & run the 2nd leg hard if they want!!!!

I believe it was 44. Hope to have the same or few more this year! New route may bring more interest and keep the Thunder going strong!! Great being part of it and raising money for the children with cancer!
