I called the Eastern end of the UP home for the first 20 years of my life. My town is called Hessel (pop ~500) and is located between St Ignace and the Soo. Lake Superior State University after that. Moved to Hernando MS for a few years and then here to Cincinnati in 2000. Been here ever since. A lot of you guys on the Western end don't consider us E.U.P.ers real Yoopers. :-)

The only time I was in your neck of the woods, I was racing on my cross country skiis in 6th grade. I placed second. It was in Ontonogon.

My team and I ride Thursday nights in Ft Thomas. We go out Rt 8, turn around at Pendery Park and then climb River Rd into Ft. Thomas. If you're ever back in the area, give me a holler!
