Art, my cristle ball says 83* and sunny for next weekend[8D]

Mark, Please call the Weather Channel and clue them in. Your crystal ball is much more to my liking than their long range forecast. Hope it gets better looking. They should change the forecast at least 5 times in the next 5 days, so who knows.
Have fun and report back. Art

Markcuda about 1hour and a half from Rice Lake. Will be a sweet ride for you. Hoping the weather is nice also for you. I am looking at riding over to Black River Falls and on to Winnona MN shortly. Rode it in a car last year and is incredibly senic and have been wanting to take the bike over there again soon. Have a great trip.

Hey Mark,
I gota work the night shift that weekend (12 hour shifts) But if your around town after 3pm give me a call. 218.525.2895. When your here get down around the canal area, lots of stuff and stores there or take a burn up the north shore (Old highway 61) to Two Harbors. Its about 20mi. one way but the scenery is beautiful. And the Harley Davidson sports center up on the hill is having their spring open house on saterday from 9-6. Its up highway 53 on the corner of hwy 53 and Stebner Rd. I should be up and about after 3 if you want to give me a shout....If not, Welcome and enjoy our town. Bob

Ok Bob, sounds good to me.
We are going to play things all by ear
If the weather looks shi tty, we may head south to the Tn and Sc. boarder and ride the tail of the dragon.
We will, if we have to, change plans Thursday night.
