Not that we have to stop at these, but I added dinner for these days:
Sunday July 16th has a stop for dinner at Sir Smoke A Lot BBQ in St Croix Falls Wisconsin https://www.facebook.com/SirSmokeALotBBQ
Monday July 17th has a stop for dinner at Side Track in Powers Michigan
Friday July 21st has a stop for dinner at Mickey-Lu Bar-B-Q in Marinette WI https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100048134634092
Saturday we can fast all the way home after all of the calories we consumed on the trip and failed to burn off on the motor cycle seat!
GPX files are version 1.2.
Enjoy!

As seen everywhere, "Tips are appreciated, but not required." Tip or not tip, is at your discretion. Either way, I will not hold it against you. Jack-wagon! Just kidding...
Everyone, please do some research on things you would like to do or see while in the area of Brevort Township and St. Ignace, MI. Obviously, we will be going to Mackinac Island at some point, but with multiple days we have time for other things. I saw we could do a helicopter flight over the area, many options, and it flys right out of the Mackinac County Airport right between our current AirBnb and the ferry to the island. Here are a few of sites for info:

Although I think you may have an error in your post above indicating that it is in Wausau. Other than that, $463.16 sounds like a respectable figure for a week long trip. Throw in some cheap eats, some fuel for our fuel sipping cycles and we just might be able to do it for under $1k. Ok, maybe a little over with my fuel guzzling bike.
Thank you sir for dedicating the time and effort to do this. Heck, the hardest part is going to be washing the Gee Double You up so it looks presentable.
If you don't mind, I'll PayPal you so we are even. Is it customary to tip 20% for these services? Asking for a friend....

https://www.ihg.com/holidayinnexpress/hotels/us/en/st-ignace/stimi/hoteldetail?cm_mmc=GoogleMaps-_-EX-_-US-_-STIMI
It would be $1009.65 per room...so, the cost is $2019.30 or $504.83/person or roughly $126.21/person/night, but as mentioned it would include breakfast.
If you wish to change to something other than the current selections below, we can cancel the AirBnb, for a full refund, up until July 12th @5pm....

Here is a route that could work for at least one way, we could look at changing it up for either the way out or the way back...
Way out - https://goo.gl/maps/M2E3XauCiFkERamp6
Way back - https://goo.gl/maps/Y4nqHmtVGjbGwfxJ8
Here are the accommodations:
So, we are currently $1852.64 out the door for all lodging, or $463.16/person, which equates to roughly $77.19/person/night...
Later,
