I'm about an hour N.E. of you. I also have a place in Mackinaw, so if you or mom get up north to your place anytime soon, let me know, we could meet up! I just found a great rails to trails from Mack to Cheyboygen then it hooks up and goes around Mullet lake and heads south. I think the Michigander ride uses part of it. I am dying to get bakc up there to try. 3 more weeks
