Gonna post rough directions from Savanna IL to Mauston WI soon!

Im pumped for this run. I have been putting in some good hard labor on my bike so it should be up and running like a champ. Looking forward to meeting all these like minded people versus all the douche bags I get in the retail world.

My bike isn't a "chopper", but all that is around me is baggers. It'd be nice to ride with people who don't have heated grips, stereos, and half helmets with visors!

Hooked up with a new bike just in time for this ride!!! A 95 DWG that was totaled 10 years ago, my dad bought it, rebuilt it, and after 10 years, he finally gave it up!! Bikes not 100% done, but it's a fuckin great start! Let the countdown continue!

wow i just looking for something to do in june in this popped up today. I might just have to roll

We will be meeting in Savanna IL on Friday June 15th. Most of us will be there in the afternoon & early evening hours.

Set up camp behind poopys (up the gravel road in the back). Camping is free and its first come first serve... I have never really seen it packed before so dont worry.

Violation Tour-June 16th Sat Morning THE RIDE!!!!!


This is the suggested route. We suggest leaving in small groups or with your riding buddies to keep things safe. No set leave time. Total ride should take about 6-7 hours max & total mileage is around 230 miles. I wll bring copies of the suggested route. Also, the land we are camping on in Mauston is very primitive camping. No Bathrooms, although we will have a makeshift shit pit set up for all of you dirty bastards who have the beer shits.

Also, if you plan on going directly to the Mauston Camp site on Saturday its pretty much at the corner of 82 & Overgaard rd..Head south on Overgaard Rd and you will find it. I am assuming no one will be there until the mid late afternoon.

My old man is planning on tagging along, but he doesn't think his back will handle two nights of sleeping on the ground along with 3 days of travel (3 back surgeries will do that) . Does anyone have any suggestions on a local motel or hotel? I checked, there are plenty around, but if you have experience with a bad one or came across a good one let me know so I can tell him. Info on either location (Savanna and Mauston) would be great! Thanks

hey Bean.

Heres a link to one in Savanna IL

http://l-mmotel.com/

Otherwise, the Super 8 is decent too.

As far as hotels in Mauston...I have no clue...Maybe someone else will chime in on that one.
See ya there.

Or if you wanna get fancy in Savanna IL these have always looked cool to me.

Mauston has motels but not sure how close they are to the camping area though, probably not more than a 10 minute ride.

Im in Madison, WI, would like to link up with the ride somewhere on saturday maybe at a stop around bloomington... If you have a time say to get there before so im sure not to miss the boat thatd be cool. Otherwise will roll to mauston for sure

Im ridin out of N.W. IN if anyone wants to ride along.

PLEASE READ: Pete who owns the land we are camping at on Sat has spent alot of time and money to get things rolling for us outa pure love for motorcycles and new friends. This is technically a free run, but we will be passing around a donation bucket to try to cover Petes cost for getting his land ready, cutting down poison ivy, treating the land for tics, and buying a porter john etc etc. Just a heads up
