Wife and I rode to visit my folks Friday night to the U.P. It was 30 degrees when we pulled in at 9:20 p.m.Thers still some snow on the ground and ice on Lake Michigan.But 30 degrees and going 70 mph makes for a hell of a wind chill.Still,glad we took the bike............rootney3

Wind Chill calculation says 30 degrees with 70 mph wind means it feels like 9 degrees.

Hey, would it feel as cold if you were on that Artic Cat sled?

I'm from a little village called Lena. You must have gone up US 41 through Oconto & Peshtigo. Lena is on Route 141 about 7 mi west of US41 (on the way to Iron Mt., MI). Been to Escanaba many time. Have friends in Houghton who own the B&B Bar, best jalapeno pickled eggs in the WHOLE wide world.
