The Sunday before last. The route was Ann Arbor, Dexter, Chelsea, Taylor, Maumee, Toledo.

307 miles (~500km) in my very stinky work van 🫠
A very busy route that heads west from Detroit to the western rural Ann Arbor-ish area, before heading back to the southern Detroit metro. From there I went west down I94 to US23 which took me to Maumee, Ohio. I did one last stop in Toledo before heading back up I75.
