BigDawg Posted March 23, 2011 Share #1 Posted March 23, 2011 So call me crazy, but I've had this '06 MV for two months and I want to go for a nice long ride. My wife's niece is getting married on May 5th in Detroit Lakes, MN, so I'm trying to plan on leaving Carlsbad CA on Friday April 29th, have to be back to work on Tuesday, May 10th. Up I-15 north to somewhere in Colorado or Wyoming or Montana and east-northeast to Fargo/Detroit Lakes. Any ideas, comments, psychiatric care, or whatever is appreciated. I figure it's about 2K miles each way, planning on about 500 per day. If the weather that area is currently getting continues, it's probably not going to happen, but I'm hoping it'll be warm enough to go. We did a 315 mile each way 2 weeks ago, the Butler Mod helped alot, and we could have gone for a couple hundred more easy... what's everybody think about this idea? thanks!

utadventure Posted March 23, 2011 Share #2 Posted March 23, 2011 You're not crazy if you're riding!! The Butler mod makes a huge difference. Stop by SLC on your way. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eck Posted March 23, 2011 Share #3 Posted March 23, 2011 Stay out of the west side of Kansas........in fact stay out of the whole state...... the birds fly upside down in that state because there is nothing to poop on...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friesman Posted March 23, 2011 Share #4 Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) You will have a blast!! Enjoy the trip. Detroit Lakes is a great little town and if youre bored just take a short drive to Mahnomen MN to the Shooting star Casino and hotel. I would take your woolies and rainwear just in case, as Ive been there in June and needed a waterproof jacket.
