I have one friend who lives in Grand Rapids, but I haven't seen him in ages.
One of his fave places to eat is the Electric Cheetah. Supposed to have good food.

Being in the land of THE Ohio State University, I'm not supposed to like Michiganders, but in your case, I'll make an exception.

Does anyone in this group try to organize a members ride? If not i would like to suggest it, with all the classic rides it would be a blast, and a site to see for the onlookers!

I live in Battle Creek and have been going to the Gilmore Vintage Bike show for over ten years....that would be a fun one day ride for you guys from the North.

There is also a Vintage Ride the Saturday before the event.
