Anything any closer than DL area? I'm sure I'd get lost out there since I've only been out there like 2 or 3 times, and that was just in DL, not on the roads around there.

treimche there are some pretty good roads in the lakes area, like was said earlier. Just head out there and explore alittle. Just yesterday I went for a ride in that area and found some pretty good roads. Here is a link to the route that I took.

The roads can get a little crouded with all of the lakes people out there. You just have to be carefull and respectfull. I thought the best road in that link is the fish lake rd. It is all really tight curves that are posted at 20 to 30mph. The bad part is that it is lined with houses so you can't go all out, but you can still have a little fun just going about 10 over the speed limit.
Oh and 113 and Itaska Park has to be the best road around here. I have done that trip many times. It takes about 5 to 6 hrs. to go out there and cruise around alittle and come back. But it is definetly worth it. 113 has all been redone so it is nice and smooth. But like was said earlier some of the cops can be dicks. This is the route I usually take to Itaska. And when I get there I usually do two loops around the park. I think it costs $2 or $3 for a parking pass.

Hope this helps give you an idea of where to ride. And I am always ready for riding. Everyone on this forum should get together sometime and go for a big group ride out to Itaska. -
I went halfway through the good part of 113 in the crx and it was fun, hope to do the whole trip soon. It's got some really steep hills and fun curves. My advice is don't do it at night (that's when I happend to be passing through) there's a lot of deer. And if you get cops on you, unless it's a state cop I wouldnt stop till I got out of the rez...i've heard some bad things about getting pulled over by rez cops.
