Just got back last night and thank you all for your input.
Rented an immaculate house on Airbnb in Huron and it was awesome. Three bedrooms, two bath, linens, soap, shampoo, coffee plus an oversized two car garage, 2 minutes from the lake, 10 from Cedar Point and 25 from downtown Sandusky rally all for $1200, for seven days. A great deal as far as I was concerned.
Sunday rode to the prison in Mansfield where Shawshank Redemption was filmed, very cool.
Monday rode to Rock & Roll HOF via route 6 around lake, some beautiful homes and scenery. Had lunch at the “Flats” touristy but nice.
Tuesday rode southeast through farms and small one stop light towns, again very enjoyable with great roads and NO TRAFFIC!!!
Wednesday did the Henry Ford museum including the Rouge Factory Tour (Thanks Opus for that recommendation). And rode into downtown Detroit to go to Canada. NOTE:Motorcycles are not allowed through the tunnel to Canada but there is no signage stating this that we saw. You must take the Ambassador Bridge. We did have passports and the Canadian customs agent was a real cutie and friendly, US agent not so much.
Thursday we rode to the west along lake to Cedar Point (picture taking only) and headed south making a big 180 mile loop then ending back at the rally in Sandusky, good music, drink, and fun.
Friday we took the scenic route to Canton, NFL HOF through Mohican county which had some awesome winding roads and scenery. Being Eagles fans and thanks to the recent SB victory we got to see memorabilia from the game.
I never knew Ohio was so green and picturesque and I would recommend it to anyone for a trip.
Lastly we returned home Saturday through Pittsburgh and visited the Flight 92 Memorial, very moving. Every US Citizen should be required to visit all of these memorials to remind them what we have gone through, and the importance of a strong border.
Total trip miles 2118.... and loved every one of them.
