Really great post rest day 85 mile cruise up to Milwaukee. We had lunch at the 50 mile mark. About that time the temperature dropped 10° and it started to rain. The next hour was cold and wet but the rain subsided and we had a really nice 20 mile ride on rail trail finishing off the day rolling into Milwaukee the home of Big Beer and Harley Davidson.

Cheers

Doug do you know what I love best about you today? I love how your upbeat attitude and beautiful smile is EXACTLY the same pre-ride as it is Post-ride.! You’re killing this and making it look easy. Also loved the pictures again today as always. Loved the historical post Civil War building erected to take care of the veterans, how awesome is that. The “dive bar” made me laugh out loud and & the pic of you riding and grinning with a buddy right behind you made me smile big. You’ve SO got this!

Leave a cheer
