& Rides Biker Discount Card U.P.
Bike Week
One day in 2006, after a 35 year hiatus from the sport of motorcycling Dave Johnson found himself riding north to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. It was after this ride and the many more to come in the following years, that Dave got his inspiration for U.P. Cruising. In 2007 he created the U.P. Cruising website. Shortly thereafter he came up with the idea for U.P, Cruising Biker Discount program, which was his way of trying to bring bikers and U.P. biker friendly businesses together. In the following years, Dave looking for even more ways to bring attention to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, created Just Ride Week, later to be named U.P. Bike Week. The event posted on motorcycling event calendars around the Internet caught the attention of bikers from around the county, many of them ex-Yoopers who were inspired to climb aboard their bikes and make the trip back to the U.P.

More to come......
It's really all about the journey when it gets right down to it. Looking forward to 2010!
