Compare the trees in my picture with the one above. And it's not technically a tag since it's not on dirt, it was just a gratuitous shot of my bike when it was nice and clean.

No, it is difficult, that just happens to be my favorite road in lower Michigan.Who knows how many times I've been down it over the years.

Sorry Guys,

I missed that the tag had to be on a dirt road(that wasn't a requirement on the Tag-O-Rama for the Twin Cities). I'll stick to dirt roads from here on out.

DIRTSCOOTER · 10-09-2012, 09:17 AM

The easy one first.

And the more obscure one, the exact spot was hard to find so I just got one to show I was there.

Cassidy rd was very nice indeed, for a while I thought I had never been there before and then I saw the barbed wire fence towards the end. We used this road on a dirt road observation run we had a few years back.

DIRTSCOOTER · 10-09-2012, 09:34 AM

Pretty much as far west and north as you can go in Washtenaw county.

flyingbeard · 10-09-2012, 03:26 PM

I found it, but it did take me some searching.

I was over in Jackson Co a few miles to the west. I was using a Topo Map and it doesn't show county lines....

Sun is getting ready to set, so I will post a new tag tomorrow....

DIRTSCOOTER · 10-09-2012, 07:28 PM

Well done flyingbeard, and fast too.

flyingbeard · 10-10-2012, 11:36 AM

New Tag!

I know that there are many towers in the Washtenaw Co, so here is a hint: It's on a dirt road named after a famous Civil War General in southern part of the county.

I know where this is... if I could get away for a bit I can tag it... between work, the wind and another "w" word...

its been a rough week ....

BTW - love the XR.. almost bought one a few months back ...

flyingbeard · 10-10-2012, 04:01 PM

Hi Toad! The XR is a fun ride and does a good job getting around town. It's got plenty of bottom end. Not the best bike for riding on rain soaked dirt roads, but it will do it. The Michelin Scorcher 11s did pretty good if I stayed out of the big mud holes.

The Brown Santa brought my counter sprocket seal and new rear sprocket for my husky today. I should have the TE 630 back together shortly, It's a much better bike for this kind of stuff.

flyingbeard · 10-14-2012, 02:21 PM

Wow! I thought somebody would have tagged it by now. Here is a bump to get this tread back on the first page.
