I’ve pass through there several times. Big Ben has been on my list of parks to go, but now with the raods you’ve show. I want to take my bike and ride there too..

Been wanting to ride up there for a while now. Thanks for letting me live vicariously!

❤❤❤❤❤

been to tombstone in 85 dec. ,totally.

that guy that threw is trash on the ground is one of the do not let in type .

wish I was there shearing that sun set .

yummy ice cream

👍

Come to New Hampshire in middle October . Made for bikes in the twisties and the color will blow your socks off . ride the Kanc , an adventure of a lifetime . Love your vid .

I live in Michigan and have ridden many of these roads by car and my Harley's. The tunnel of trees is a must ride but I think it's overrated. Great video.

The DIRT BIKING IS 100 X BETTER THAN THAT ! 😁

We stayed at a family cabin in Traverse City and road to all of the places you mentioned in July. I was still underwelmed by the tunnel of trees. I loved Sleeping Bear!

Who told you the tunnel of trees was the most scenic in Michigan? It's just a fall color ride, not even close to the best in Michigan. So many other great scenic roads.

This helmet is sick for how simple it looks 😍

Thank you for sharing! I absolutely loved this video (makes me want to ride my Harley to Michigan to see all the breath taking views you got to see). Sorry if I have asked this before but what camera did you use to film this? I bought a 4k sport cam sorta like a go pro but not sure I’m liking it. I do have an Insta 360 I will be getting set up on both my bikes very soon. Until the next one ride safe ma’am thank you again for the beautiful views!!!

I love my state!! I love it even more when Ride to Food is here. Please come back again!!

A❤❤❤❤❤

Taco on left looked good was that fried fish or chicken.?? 🍱👀👍👍

I know I've said it many times, but I really envy you. I would have liked to come along....

2:25 You mentioned 'no bugs'. Can you tell me 'when' this was filmed? I'm in Ohio (with friends in Michigan) and I want to ride the Tunnel Of Trees. I have not yet motorcycle camped. (I'm enough of an experienced camper, but haven't motorcycle camped) I prefer to camp in the spring or fall...so I avoid BUGS! Thanks (you may have mentioned when this was filmed, but I'm only at 2:30)

Love this video!! Rad edit on this. I did the M-119 in summer on my Lake Michigan circle tour, but your trip in the fall was friggin rad. So much better. BTW, the dog was adorable. As always, I really enjoy your content!

❤❤❤❤❤

May you always be safe and healthy n protected 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Also if you want a good bag for colder temps check out wiggys Fantastic bags and even if they get wet they keep one warm Used em all over and never been let down Angels be with you

Tunnel of Trees is ok, certainly not our best ride. M22 is great, however m26, US41, H58, the porcupine mountains (numerous roads) are all better in IMHO

I love riding a motorcycle over the Mackinac Bridge. I do go on the metal grate for a bit just for fun, but it does make handling a little squirrelly so I don't stay there.

I found the love of my life ♥️ 🤩

You nailed it in Charlevoix…. It’s like a movie town, very upscale. Petosky not so much…. Traverse City is a step between Petosky and Charlevoix. I hope you got to stop at Torch lake… it is constantly voted one of the most beautiful lakes in the country. It’s right next to Traverse City. M-109 is the route that shoots off M-22 for the peninsula. Very cool trip….

Awesome video. I've been to a few of these spots, but you make them seem somehow better!!!??? I was over in Duluth hiking roughly this same time..maybe a week earlier. The colors were fire last fall!

Thank you for showing this beautiful part of the country that I have never been to and have not even thought of this area until your video...

I don’t know when you went through obviously it wasn’t two days ago, but it is incredibly difficult to go through the tunnel of trees while the colors are showing without encountering just a ridiculous amount of traffic. I’ve tried all seven days ranging from eight in the morning till six in the evening, which are pretty much the daylight hours that time of year and the traffic’s always pretty brutal.

Great video! I live in TC and love this area of my state. Yes, Tunnel of Trees is WAY over rated. Especially when the tourist are up here to ruin the fun. Pierce Stocking is in my back yard and I ride M22 as much as I can. It’s my take my mind off life ride. Thank you for representing Michigan so well. Hope your next trip treats you just as well. Safe travels!

Hey, you are in my neck of the woods. I grew up on a farm in Indiana, but as soon as I took a road trip to Michigan, I knew I was moving there ASAP! In the winter, we trade the bikes for snowmobiles. In the summer, it's such a nice place to ride. There are so many lakes and hidden camping spots. The summer temps stay fairly moderate thanks to lake Michigan with very few days over 90° and lows in the low to mid 60's. I've lived here for over 20 years, and there's still so much I haven't seen. There's also a strong motorcycle culture here that is friendly and welcoming to all riders. Funny that your the only other person I seen wearing the smart wool under garments. I think they are perfect for riding and wearing under my other clothes and gear. Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed your trip. Thanks for promoting our beautiful state of Michigan!

nice scenery but it's winter.

is there free camping in the area ?

That was really cool. I did the UP way back in 2011 coming up WI 35 to US 41 and US 2 on a 2009 Heritage. Then up MI 117 to the bottom shore of Lake Superior then on to Sault Ste Marie. I then entered Ontario and traveled Canada to Lake Ontario and re-entered at Lewiston NY. Here it is all these years later and remembering I promised myself to return and do what you just accomplished. Thank you for the memories and for sharing! Keep up the good work.

Beautiful scenery for the ride

Wow thanks for the Vid. I need to hit M22 and Leelanau County again this year before the summer crowds roll in. I've lived between TC and Charlevoix for most of my life and there are many great rides up here in NW Mi.

I'm a lifetime Michigander and I have not been to all those places. I put some pins in my map for this summer while watching this video, and subscribed. I just bought a classic Goldwing to do some multi-day stuff this summer, this will be on the list.

I live in the Petoskey area about 10 minutes from the tunnel of trees and also ride. I love going down it in the spring time, seeing everything bloom and all the smells are amazing! Less traffic too 😅

You missed out on Beards brewery in Petoskey. Yuppies have ruined traverse city. It used to be way better. I probably rode M-22 4 times last year. Always a good day ride coming from the Muskegon area. The tunnel is definitely overrated. Still end up doing it once a year, usually in the fall, and some how it usually ends up being cold and rainy. Which cuts down on the amount of traffic out there. 🤣

Charlevoix = shar-leh-voy

You did really good with Charlevoix it’s Voy at the end! 😊. I feel like Traverse City is for Rich people too now. Wasn’t always that way.

Wow, great video!

This is wonderful, hi I'm new to your channel what a beautiful ride that was, I'm from Michigan but moved south 27 years ago, I still love vacationing up there it's one of the prettiest states. It would be fun someday to do a ride together up there, there are definitely places that most tourists don't know about that are hidden gems.

Beautiful 🌌 Milky Way photos. What a beautiful area to camp 🏕 at

Love the videos, I've had two great trips to AR thanks to your input. I hear you on the right kind of enjoyable spots, not too touristy/bougie to lose the experience of the area. I don't even have a motorcycle, I love your videos for ideas for road trips in my Miata. Very inspiring! The bike folks know where to find the roads.

Michigan has beautiful nature, unfortunately we don't have such beautiful colors in the fall in the Netherlands. I look forward to new episodes

Not many cars say they've been in every state in this country. What an accomplishment
