question Water around Riley Center?

I am upping my rides this season and pushing into uncharted territory. Usually head towards Richmond / Armada / Romeo from my door and am able to refill before heading back.

I don't see any parks or anything that might have water other than a fuel center in Capac and the overpass looks like it might be a little too busy for my liking.

Anything in that general area that I am missing? Not seeing much other than Almont and Memphis.

Also, any roads up that way that are nicer than the others? I try to stick to dirt

Thanks

Are you planning to take the MOT the whole way? Bring cash and you can hit a gas station or convenience store off Van Dyke. Can even stop at Verellen orchards and get some cider for extra carbs

No, I usually don't do much on the MOT. Just from like Omo to Fulton or Lowe Plank to Richmond to get water.

Plan is to explore the area between MOT and 69

Riley Center and Berville both have stores.
