SK400 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Well, as some of you know, I recently moved from CT to MI, Ann Arbor. I had all of my cars transported 3 weeks ago and finally went for a first short drive with my caterham yesterday zipping around some of the country roads around here. Clearly a lot of car enthusiasts around with many thumbs up etc… was great to feel the wind in the hair, finally declaring and officialising the move to MI with this short drive. i plan to hit a track or two perhap in September if time allows. I ll keep you posted. Reaching out to any other caterham enthusiast in the Ann Arbor region, if any! Talk soon Seb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11Budlite Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Congrats on the move Seb, the car looks great. I hope you and your family enjoy your new home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 I'm is South Lyon and always up for a blat! For good local roads, check out North Territorial and Dexter Trail starting just north of Gregory and for a slow tour try Huron River Drive, it's posted at 35 MPH. There are several other good local roads, but typical for Michigan the road surface is $hit. Also careful on Huron River Drive. Ann Arbor is 6th in the nation for speed traps.

SK400 Posted August 25, 2021 Author Share Posted August 25, 2021 Thanks for the wishes and the tips guys! Croc - clearly miss the East coast gang but will see each other again. I’m sure of it. Still have to show Simon who is the real slim shady. Dave, MoBoost, would be terrific to connect over the next few weeks as convenient. Let’s PM one another. Looks like South Lyon and Canton are not too far from one another. mid September? Wouk also love to hit one of the tracks this fall. Let me know if interested. talk soon! seb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xflow7 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 There's some nice driving around A2 (lived there from '04-'07). I second the run out Dexter/Chelsea way. You can do a nice little loop out that way and then up through Hell and Pinckney area. Also, don't miss this (near Waterford). I came across it totally randomly one day on my way back from Waterford Hills. It was especially serendipitous as the intersection here is Caterham Dr and Williams Lake Road (my last name is Williams), but unfortunately the street sign didn't have both signs: Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
