Our tentative route is below. I have a pretty good idea of our stops and areas of interest. Lead Pipe Lead Pipe our director of beer and food consumption has already researched lunch spots. I am also asking YOU for any recommendations along our route for us to consider. Personal experiences, places you have visited and enjoyed, etc.

  • Awesome brewery your friend owns?
  • SICK road with 400 corners in 3 miles?
  • World's largest toilet that TCG MUST VISIT?
  • 12,000ft overlook where you can see 14 states?

On day 3, we drive right through Presque Isle. My aunt owns Retreat Bar about 3 miles west of there right on Hwy W, I’m sure she’d have us all there for lunch if you guys want. It looks like it’s about an hour and a half after the lookout stop so I’m thinking that would be around lunch time

I got a really awesome offer from another Northwoods business owner in Manitowish Waters. Problem is I don't think we have enough people committed to make it financial work for her. We would be heading into Wisconsin on B so that location could work out for us. I will keep you in mind. It will probably be a late afternoon lunch/early dinner.

Yes I live about 7 miles northwest of Shawano right up the road from Red River. 55 is an awesome drive, don’t know how many more years it will be around either. There is talk of construction in the next few years eliminating a lot of turns and hills to make it ‘safer’

The road was not in the best of shape but the hills and corners were great for Wisconsin. Looked like alot of waterfalls in the area also.

Ok, I am calling Best Western and adding an extra day to my confirmation. Sorry, I am just now paying attention to this. I leave for Vegas tomorrow and that trip has been on my mind.

A extra day in Ashland? Not sure you want to drive back 2 hours from our last scheduled stop in Minocqua.

If you are interested in spending a 3rd (Sunday) night I would suggest the Minocqua area...
