MAB Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 This past week I put some great miles on. I thought I would share one strech that was real good. If you are ever in the area and have time take 61 north out of Duluth to Beaver Bay then take MN 1 to Ely. MN 1 is great and probably 65 miles of curves and forest area and not much traffic.

Dave S Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I've been wanting to ride that stretch of road since I got my bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hanronson Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 That is one of, if not, the best roads in the state if you like twisties.(like me!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnutz Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I rode that about 10 years ago. Almost got run into by a Bear. He was high-tailing it out of somebody's yard. Them things can run! I hope they got some of the bumps out of it by now. One of the best rides there is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave S Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Several years ago the wife and I and the kids took a vacation to the North Shore. We drove HWY 1 to Ely. By the time we got there, the wife and kids were sick. Guess I was having too much fun on the twisties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big A Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Thanks for the info MAB !Thats a stretch I have always wondered about. We should gather some forum fellers together and twist some throttles through all those wonderful twisties ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
