Michigan, so far, has four that I've seen, with more to come.
The Western UP, Eastern UP, North LP, and central LP.
Western UP is very pretty, but desolate, and only apparent means of
economy is selling each other stuff, mostly cool old cars and
snowmobiles.
Eastern UP is a tourist haven. Bass fishing tourneys are the norm and
they have their own state fair.
The north LP starts flat and turns hilly. Cherry farms are everywhere
with interesting "slicks" of squashed cherries at road crossings. I
had so much splattered cherries on the bike, I attract butterflies
when I stop. Either the cherries or dead bugs...
The central LP is starting to feel like southern Michigan, ala Detroit
and/or northern Ohio, kind of boring and post-industrial.
I've seen giant concrete dinosours, had really good chili dogs
(Pellston, MI), and seen 4167 "putting America to work" highway
construction signs.
So far, so good. On to Lakeside.
