First scenic motorcycle ride of the season

Gearing up for a motorcycle ride to Soldiers Grove Wis, With a bunch of friends this weekend for a scenic ride and camp out. Weather is looking good so far YA!

First scenic motorcycle ride of the season. Live To Ride,Ride To Live!

Soldiers Grove was first settled in 1856 by Joseph H. Brightman, who began a sawmill at the site to process logs rafted down the Kickapoo River. The village which sprang up near the sawmill was initially named "Pine Grove" because of the abundance of Eastern White Pine in the vicinity. In 1867, the name of the village was changed to "Soldiers Grove" to commemorate the troops who had camped in the area during the Black Hawk War.
